The answer lies in the very two words - Knowledge and Economy. Knowledge is intelligence used for good. And good Economics also is economics used for good. How do we use these two for good. Let's start with the 80% our friend Ramesh Ramesh Vemuganthi talks of. We have seen the 'Garibi Hatao', policies from various governments over these years, with absolutely now garibi removed. Garibhi Hatao is actually 'Ameeri Banao'. To become ameer one has to cut costs. The lay Indian should be educated to cut costs. A garig cutting costs simply means family planning. With just one child the man/woman can save and gradually become ameer. He also has the time for a little learning if he can make ends meet easily. This way he/she gains knowledge and is economically sounder. The foundation of good economics is that money should be spread around. It should be in the hands of everyone. There is no point in money being with a few persons. That is why I don't agree with the sponsor of this feature. It is not enough for Reliance to make millionaires out of a few thousand or hundred thousand people. They should come out with businesses that make all Indians richer. It is not enough if Mr. Mukesh and Mr. Anil are among the richest in the world. They should see to it that India becomes better off too.
