Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Dear Hemen,

Gm and wishing you are doing very well, pls find the questions.....may I know how old are you as I wanted to add that into your intro.....l hope its ok if we converse for an hour and a half that way I will be able to edit some really good quality content/answers to a crisp 35 to 45 mins length final copy.

 

Why do you do what you do, what motivates you?

1- COVID- why has India been the worst-hit nation- what could it have had done right

2- 20 lakh crore stimulus package- Only the banking industry, & big corporates seem to have been favored- your views

3- Moratorium by the Banks were heavily tilted inter favor, utility companies sent exaggerated bills during peak lockdown instead of helping, hospitals, PPE kits & many other industries exploited common man instead of helping - your views

4- Vaccination which was supposed to be free is hoarded by Pvt players, hospitals & being charged- what should be done to cut the middleman & make sure the vaccine reaches everyone

5-what can be done to reverse the covid impact and get India back on track- the role of technology

6-You write insightful blogs, send weekly emails to policymakers suggesting, advising, and arming them with strategies that could create value for every Indian citizen and Indian biz’s

have the policymakers implemented your vision, if yes can you share the ideas which were accepted and implemented

7-unemployment rate is at an all-time high

govt says they don’t have data on migrant deaths or the job loss

your views and what steps should the govt take to handhold the most vulnerable

8-Fossil fuel, pollution has claimed millions of lives in India

State-owned co’s such as Coal India, NTPC, ONGC, and Pvt co’s such as reliance industries are still getting backed by the govt with subsidies & financial support

How urgent is India’s climate problem and what steps India needs to take to transition to clean energy

9-Future of mobility in India

What needs to be done so that we transition to Electric vehicles & Clean Energy

10- What are the problems you are most passionate about solving

11-US, CHINA, EU are spending billions on AI, Quantum Computing, and Deep tech as once this tech matures it will give a nation an advantage over the other.

8000Cr was sanctioned for Quantum computing- but leaders who I have interviewed say they hardly see the money and if they come its delayed and never as promised - your views

12- The faith of people in politics, politicians are waning

Do you see a collaborative, people lead, community-driven governance as the way forward

13-Blockchain as a tech promises transparency & accountability

Do you see India implementing blockchain-based Governance

14- we have entered the new normal, tech will be a driving force to create a sustainable, thriving nation

AR/VR, AI, Blockchain, BioTech, IoT can transform education, healthcare, agriculture & many other fields

What steps must the govt, biz’s & individuals take to build a preferred future

15-Should healthcare & education which are basic fundamental rights be free for all & standardized
