Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had private shareholders, as it had before 1949, they would have been a happy lot on Wednesday evening. The old lady of Mint Street will deliver its bounty from the financial markets — by far the most generous payout it has ever made — to New Delhi.

However, the optics of the event — a monetary authority headed by a former bureaucrat making a huge transfer to a macho government towards the end of a long, noisy general election — masks a more prosaic truth. The payout number is a function of local and offshore currency and money markets, coupled with RBI's active intervention in the foreign exchange market. FY24 WAS DIFFERENT

ego and the hankering for power are causes of family disturbances, social evils and war. The very basis of a war is created at a personal level. Failing to understand dharma and a lack of empathy for others are reasons for discord. Each religion has given importance to non- violence, love, compassion, goodwill and selflessness.
