PM: Those who put India in Fragile 5 doubting GDP

India's Prime Minister has taken aim at the critics who once lumped the country in with the so-called Fragile Five. He noted that many of the same voices now doubt India's GDP numbers. The label dates back to 2013, when a currency slide led analysts to group India with four other vulnerable emerging markets. The jibe formed part of his defence of the government's economic record.

From disaster response to mitigation, resilience

India is rethinking how it deals with disasters, shifting weight from reaction to prevention. Instead of scrambling after floods, cyclones and quakes, policymakers are turning to mitigation, which means acting before calamity strikes. Resilience is treated as something to build into planning from the start rather than improvise after each emergency. The logic is simple: money and effort spent preparing ahead costs far less than cleaning up afterwards.

Gold becoming a part of circular economy

Gold is slowly finding a place in the circular economy. Old jewelry and scrap metal can be melted down, refined and reworked into new pieces, which cuts the need for fresh mining. For India, where households hold enormous quantities of gold as ornaments, that means a large pool of metal never really leaves circulation. Recyclers and refiners are starting to treat that stock as a resource to be reused rather than a one-time extraction.

Tech could bridge edu divide if personalised, won’t replace teachers

Technology can help close India's education divide, but only if it is tailored to each student, according to a recent discussion on the sector. Tools that adapt to a learner's pace stand a better chance of reaching children the system currently misses. The speakers also pushed back on the idea that software will make teachers redundant. The sense of the conversation was that tech should support educators rather than replace them.

Frame biz models for society

A Times of India article argues that business models should be framed for the benefit of society. Its central point is that companies cannot treat profit as the only measure of what they do. Instead, the piece suggests, commercial models ought to be built with social impact factored in from the start.
