I truly believe the parent comment is straight up lying lmao, no job is going to keep you employed for more than a few days without an explanation, and insurance benefits end the month the employer terminates you.
You didn't read the fucking article did ya?
Right, which might be a reason to start taking everything western media reports with a giant grain of salt.
I agree with you, and I think it's a controversial take only in the activist spheres of western online intelligentsia, while frankly most of the world doesn't think it's a real problem in the grand scheme of things
Modi can be relegated to the annals of history for all I care, your assertion that this program was a waste is blatantly incorrect. 40% of Indian children are malnourished compared to 17% in the US. Indians don't have to sell blood to survive, and primary care is available to all citizens. Rx prices are controlled, and abortion has been legal for decades, and recently has been made free as well. The govt doesn't have just one mandate, and this is an achievement of the space organization not politicians. No one is implying modi was actually sitting and working to land the space craft.
"Majority" of Indian children?
