#NEP2020 calls for a paradigm shift in the regulatory approach towards learning outcomes.
Setting up ASSSA is a milestone in that direction and #Assam is the first state in the country to do so.
Happy to be a small part of the big change. @ranojpeguassam @himantabiswa @ngmahanta

Indian liberals debated whether freedom required state support for industry & basic living conditions. Prof. @rahulsagar traces how these questions drew some towards socialism.

I want to fund a legaltech startup that uses AI to:
Predict the likely judgment in a particular case based on the judge's earlier decisions.
Which judge is the right one to select if I want a favourable order.
Which lawyer has the most face value with that judge.
Pitch to me !

Please show your support. Even a rupee is an affirmation of support and boost in confidence.
Libertarian-leaning candidate @abvrao (retired IPS, Centre for Liberty Chairman) is standing as independent in the Vijayawada Mayoral election (28 Oct).
He is contesting on anti-corruption, property rights, transparent municipal finances, drainage/sanitation accountability, and blocking hasty property tax hikes.
He is fighting the NDA (Jana Sena) and YSRCP candidates plus the usual civic corruption and fund misuse.
Libertarians across India are requested to show support in all ways possible amplify, donate and so on. Viva la libertad.

Welcome to India, where:
A BA graduate delivers Zomato
An MBA sells credit cards
A BTech writes UPSC mains
And a PhD is waiting for caste-based vacancy

His work was funded by Ford Foundation and McArthur Foundation. How many million years would it take to those "100 workers" to match billionaires like Henry Ford and John McArthur? Or is this calculation meant only for the non-white billionaires? Saving Indian souls - backed by western business - is a very old game.....

Even as media remains occupied with contentious political events, the government demonstrates wisdom and courage by advancing the reform agenda and promoting the cause of the economy.

My colleague and Centre for Liberty chairman AB Venkateswara Rao is filing the nomination papers tomorrow in Vijayawada for the Mayoral Election on October 28 as an independent
We don't have much time and there will be a lot of work and learning. We have been doing plenty of work on the ground fighting for individual and property rights in Andhra Pradesh for a while now
This is our testing grounds and first foray into electoral politics. We are deeply committed to libertarian principles. But regardless of your ideology or party affiliation, we welcome your support for this election
Do spread the word. And if you are interested in supporting us or helping in anyway or want to know more, please do DM me
Viva la libertad!

This is exactly why we should aim to create a market economy focused on improving productivity instead of state led redistribution. Those 100 workers (and their children) stand a chance at living much better lives instead of forever doing menial labour on public works programs.
The GoI has told the SC that rules regulating airfare pricing are finalised and will be published within two weeks. Fare spikes frustrate flyers, but will price rules expand choice or shrink capacity? What should the rules actually fix? #Aviation

Mama Parmanand’s Letters to an Indian Raja (1891) argued that freedom needs an educated civil society, one that stands between rulers and citizens and checks the state.
Prof. @rahulsagar explains at the 5th Indian Liberals Annual Lecture.
