About Me!

Dear Readers,

I hope this missive finds you well. 

I am Diksha, a current undergrad in Economics at Miranda House, University of Delhi. Currently I am passionate about economics, geopolitics and international relations. 

This page was founded by me way back in class 11th when I was a dreamy school girl in Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram. It is a personal project to articulate my views and feelings about everything that I am passionate about. 

I hope you get the same joy after reading my blogs that I get after publishing them. Feel free to connect with me on my socials. 

Regards,

Diksha Gupta

India Overtakes UK in GDP Race- Should we really be Happy?

 Readers, India has crossed United Kingdom and has become the fifth largest economy in terms of GDP. This is a indeed a huge milestone but netizens, before aggrandizing the milestone let us do a reality check!  So, if you are aware: GDP stands for Gross Domestic Product. It means the total amount of services and goods produced within the boundaries of the country. But have we ever noticed how many stomachs we need to feed from the same profits?  India's population is twenty times more than that of England. So, England is like a small prosperous village but we are like the jam-packed slums surviving on the same produce.  India's GDP has grown, no doubt. But there is little doubt that India's population has grown too aggravating the problem.  If we compare the per capita income of the nations then India is still struggling. India is still at 144th position of the 194 economies. India's unbridled population explosion hasn't let us reach the expected pinnacles of gl...

Beliefs: Are We Treading a Right Path?

 Greetings!  The recent news of mayhem in Afghanistan gave me much food for thought. People wage wars to establish peace. What an irony! Will they get peace when most of the men and women die? Do they want to make religion a living hell for people? For ages, religion has been a way to liberate people from sadness but the Taliban  have handcuffed the freedom of soul. It seems that instead of liberating people they are tying a rope around a person.

How can people be happy in their rule when half of the population's dreams are curbed under a hijab and they are not provided basic rights of education? They are blots in the name of the religion that teaches people about l...

Decline in Woman's Participation in Work Force: A Stone in India's Path to Success!

Dear Reader, (The views are entirely personal and is not intended to spread hatred towards any person.)   The recent developments in the fields like access to education, freedom, higher incomes and wages for woman are commendable for our country, but we are slowly inching towards a grave issue- reduction of woman in the country's workforce . While woman's literacy growth rate has seen a whooping  jump of 11.8% (Source: Wikipedia), woman's participation has fell to 21% in the recent years. By comparing our  figures with our neighbors like Sri Lanka's 33.7% and Bangladesh's 30.5%, we realize that we are very far behind.  Now let us dive into the reasons of why this problem is spreading its pangs into India. The boon of rising household incomes has turned out into a bane for active participation of woman into the rural workforce. When income increases, woman find it easier to take up their traditional and conventional roles of housekeeping. Unmarried women in the ...
