BJP does a copy paste job on Twitter, boasts about South Delhi LED lights with a photo of Canada

It is a rare opportunity to hear a dissenting opinion with this quality from an Indian member on PDF.

I have long suspected that majority of Indian members here are from "First India" where they enjoy a life style on par with that in developed countries, and they either don't care about or detached with the ground reality of "Second India" where people work in "informal sector" and struggle to put food on the table. @Chinese-Dragon

The fact that most Indians on PDF are from the privileged lot was never more clear than their reaction to the government's demonetization stunt. Several members tried to point out that the move is a gimmick which is causing untold misery to the poor daily wage earners. All of it fell on deaf ears.

So delusional these people are in their elitism that they actually thought that their experience of standing in line at ATMs and Banks was the same as the hardship of losing one's livelihood or dying due to lack of access to food, healthcare, etc.

Since such an attitude will always keep a majority in poverty, they have taken it upon themselves to distort reality where apparently the wealth gap is not growing wider, economic growth is not jobless, and so on.

They know most Indians are dumb enough to never figure this out. Just like the GDP growth figures.

The funny thing is, Indians by and large do not even care that much about things like GDP. It is only the tiny minority that reads brownbacks and comments on social media, TV that care, and they don't win elections.

I personally don't think there is enough evidence that the Indian government has deliberately fudged GDP figures. Rather, it is a case of poor quality of data which is inevitable given the size of our informal economy. However, the fact that these doubts have been raised and they have not been able to answer them effectively is a blot on the government's credibility.

No surprise. Indian propaganda also used a Chinese bridge represting an Indian bridge. They used Dubai to represent new delhi

It is not a propaganda by a nation but a political party of that nation.

if only the picture posted was an example of the SDMC’s splendid work and not from some street in Canada’s Shelburne district

Indian government specializes in publishing fake photos. After last year's major flood in Chennai, Tamilnadu Indian Prime Ministers Office website published a photo of PM Modi looking through a helicopter window the flood damage.

Within minutes activists posted that it was a photo-shopped photo of combining a photo of Modi flying in a helicopter somewhere and a photo of actual Chennai flood damage. Indian gov removed the photo and claimed that some webmaster mistakenly published it.
