Indian Journey Towards Responsible Capitalism

In the tumultuous post-independence period, a striking majority of India's population, estimated at approximately 70%, languished in dire poverty. As we transition into a new era, this disconcerting statistic has seen significant improvement. Today, we estimate the poverty rate at a comparatively diminished figure, around 15%.

Hello there! So, I've been looking into the 2023 Las Anod conflict and wanted to share with you what I found.

Discover the secret to making sustainable cow dung bricks with these good binders. Using binders to create bricks out of cow manure is an impossibility for obvious reasons. Cow dung or gobar, in and of itself, already possesses a binding quality. That, however, is not sufficient for the production of bricks that may be utilised in construction work that bears a load. However, in order to guarantee that these bricks will remain sturdy and long-lasting over the course of time, it is possible that a binder or various naturally occurring binding materials will be required.
