Are enough formal jobs being created?
Economists and small industrialists say the conditions and procedures built into these schemes may create obstacles for effective implementation. “There is a bigger structural reason why the economy is not able to create jobs, and that is due to insufficient demand, caused by low consumption… and the lack of private investment. The need is to create formal jobs to keep up with the pace of the supply, which is not happening, as evidenced by the fact that the proportion of salaried workers has actually dropped slightly over the last five years. What else is needed to create jobs? If the urgent requirement is to stimulate demand by increasing consumption, another step could be to raise wages in MGNREGA, the rural jobs scheme, and create a similar employment guarantee scheme for urban workers, says Mr. Roychowdhury.

Mitsubishi-Honda-Nissan Alliance: Mitsubishi Motors to join Honda-Nissan alliance, Nikkei reports, ET Auto

Download ETAuto App Get Realtime updatesSave your favourite articles Scan to download AppJapan's Mitsubishi Motors is set to join an alliance between Honda Motor and Nissan Motor, creating a tie-up between automakers with combined sales of more than 8 million vehicles, the Nikkei newspaper said on Sunday.Mitsubishi Motors, which is 34% owned by Nissan, will work with Honda and Nissan to finalise the details of their strategic partnership , Nikkei said, adding the three firms intend to standardise in-vehicle software that controls cars.Mitsubishi Motors declined to comment on the report, while a Nissan spokesperson would only say the report was not based on something either of the companies had announced. Spokespeople for Honda did not respond to a request for comment.The push comes as Nissan, Japan's third biggest automaker, has been steadily losing market share in its two largest markets, the United States and China, which together accounted for half of its global sales in the year to March.On Thursday, the company slashed its annual outlook after heavy discounting in the U.S. almost completely wiped out its first-quarter profit.Nissan and Honda said in March they were considering a strategic partnership to collaborate on producing electric vehicle components and artificial intelligence in automotive software platforms.Mitsubishi Motors is already part of a long-standing alliance with Nissan and France's Renault that the three automakers last year agreed to restructure, aiming for a downsized but more pragmatic and agile partnership.Separate collaboration between Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi Motors could help Japan's automakers cut costs and beef up to battle tough competition in EVs, dominated by companies like China's BYD and Tesla In China, the world's largest auto market, Japanese brands previously were strong but are now up against domestic automakers that have rapidly increased production and won over consumers with low-priced vehicles loaded with software.

Will a controversial nativist push and competition dull Brand Bengaluru’s sheen in years ahead?
Stop bashing industry leaders, announce large investment to clean up Bengaluru and manage its traffic. In the past two weeks, the Karnataka government managed to rile entrepreneurs and employees in quick succession. If that was not all, Bengaluru had a summer that saw citizens running from tap to tanker for drinking water. Then there are the longstanding bugbears—from traffic snarls and bad roads to inadequate public transport and inefficient garbage management. The call to reserve jobs for Kannadigas dates back to the 1980s when a committee headed by the late parliamentarian Sarojini Mahishi recommended that a share of public sector jobs be reserved for local citizens.
