Dipa Sinha and I write on #Budget2025 for The Hindu Explains. What the budget should do and what it can learn from 2004-11 when consumption of the common masses increased faster. #fiscal expansion with focus on #socialwelfare is needed to arrest this #slowdown tinyurl.com/sinhaazad

Customary #Budget2025 response The Hindu Comment - as usual full of platitudes, not backed by the numbers. One red herring - the 'middle class' tax break. Overall exasperating. Why bother!

Next round of TUS now out. Between 2019 & 2024, not much change in time spent by women on unpaid domestic chores. Also, very small increase in participation in economic activities unlike the big jump in FLFPR shown by PLFS. Full data will tell us more? thewire.in/gender/what-th…

Thread: We wrapped up the hugely gratifying Demystifying Economics Workshop held in Azim Premji University . This was the 3rd edition and was co-organised with Bahujan Economists & School for Democracy. The hope with this annual workshop is to build bridges between academia & practitioners.

Anganwadi workers in Chhattisgarh will be on strike tomorrow. Reason? Digital tyranny in the distribution of take-home rations (THR), now conditional on Aadhaar, recipient OTP, photo uploading, etc. AWWs are threatened with salary cuts if they fail.

A powerful reading of the Preamble by Aruna Roy set a stirring tone for the inauguration of the 3 day Right to Food National Convention in Jaipur. The reading reaffirmed the foundational values of justice, liberty, equality, & fraternity that anchor our democracy. #RTFconvention
