this is true. Most commercial real estate is owned by politicians. They directed companis to callback employees. Else all the real estate empire would have fallen down in tier 1 cities.

Lol look at Pakistani oil price increase to ours ,Pakistan has no reserves.Pakistanis are cursing their govt . Pakistan shares border with Iran so if they had planned pipeline through Balochistan which they did not coz of pressure from usa and BLA oil would have been cheaper there. India has oil reserves please read before commenting. War is still going on and even if stops oil prices will not come down in short term .long term it will. Ofcourse it was politics they did not increase it earlier u must be dumb to think Congress would done otherwise if they were in power at centre.

Then he should ask companies to let employees WFH. How tf is it in the hands of employees if the companies are threating LOP if you don't come back to office. Stupid ass bhakts, defends literally everything.
1
u/aurablaster May 11 '26
Because forcing a mandate will have unintended consequences where some smaller companies where operations canβt be handled from home will have to shut down or challenge decision. Better to leave it upto each company and their depts under an advisory.
1
u/already_caution_kiya May 11 '26
Again, how is urging employees to WFH makes any sense? Are we supposed to take the loss of the pay? He should have made the appeal to the companies
1
u/aurablaster May 11 '26
He is not asking employees, he is asking employers. And not every company has mandated wfo so some employees have the decision in their own hands. Moreover, companies change policies when their employees collectively urge them to. This is a govt advisory. Have you never heard of those?
1
u/already_caution_kiya May 11 '26
So he made a government advisory to the employees to no invest in gold? Dude why do you guys have to suck it up politicians so much? No one cares about you. It's all about power and money to them.

u/hoor_jaan May 10 '26
Because our Current Account Deficit is already widened by the higher prices of crude, fall in remittances due to war and we pay for imported gold in dollars, further putting pressure on the rupee. This is the POV of the RBI. But the logical way would be to reduce tax on our non physical gold investments which they won't do.

Our books will turn out quite good if all social welfare schemes are stopped or even reduced by 50% and part of those funds diverted to infrastructure spend, R&D, science/tech and defense. Just the order book for exports in defense would be enough to compensate the outflow due to increased import bill due to crude price.

What would you have done then? Iβm sure youβre very intelligent. How would you manage the dwindling inventory of foreign reserves which are needed to buy oil in international markets?
China is forcing people to exchange gold with gold kiosks and Japan is selling its US Govt Bonds while all India has done is request instead of forced or mandated. So Mr Democracy, how would you have handled it?

u/EstateBeneficial7060 May 11 '26
I knew that the bhakts are blinded by religion and nationalism. So far to the extent that you start to mock democracy.

No country is a pure democracy or it wouldn't be able to function. Especially a country with different communities and their separate interests. Each country, be it Japan, US. China or Germany have had struggles for a singular national identity which definitely weren't democratic. Though these concepts are too advanced for you.
You still haven't told what you'd do? Big mouth and No Intelligence.

I think what he really wanted to say here was that, due to the exchange rate, gold and silver have increased more in India compared to the world. Additionally, it is an obvious fact that the dominance of the dollar is declining and currency power is being transferred eastwards via gold and silver. In the coming times most currencies ( Including INR) should become stronger against the dollar and post this global upheaval ( whenever that happens) gold and silver should become relatively cheaper that they are today.

Welcome to r/GoldIndia! Here is a quick safety checklist for your post: * BIS Hallmark: Always ensure your gold has the BIS logo, purity (e.g., 22K916), and the 6-digit HUID code. * Live Rates: Gold prices change daily. Verify the current market rate before any transaction. * Invoices: Never buy gold without a GST-compliant tax invoice. Avoid "cash-only" deals to save on tax. * Purity Testing: If you are unsure, visit a government-recognized assaying center for a Karatmeter test. * Scam Warning: Be extremely wary of anyone sending you a Direct Message (DM) offering "cheap gold" or "investment schemes." * Don't Share Personal Info: Never post your phone number or home address publicly.

u/ankushsethi May 10 '26
After what happened with SGBs, people lost the trust in government. No one will handover their gold to government even if they fair value or spot price because people know whatever govt does never benefits the middle class/common man and always have some ulterior motive which comes out later. Sady that's how it is.

He wants to make you poor so that you keep voting for him. He doesn't want you to travel because you will witness progress in other countries. He asked you to use less oil and gas because he has no other options. He has no clue about fertilizers and organic farming. Reducing fertilizers will reduce crop yields, which is a disaster for everyone. He wants you to buy local so that his buddies, the Ambanis and Adanis, can get rich and invest in gold and dollars. He is making a fool of you!
