India's governance model witnessed its point of inflection in 2014 when people I gave their clear mandate to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The people's mandate in 2014 was for 'change, and in 2019 came a stronger mandate for 'continuity. The journey of India's aspirations from change to continuity is now accelerating on the path of development and empowerment. Prime Minister Modi's promise of "Gareeb Kalyan" transformed people's lives on the ground. In the last nine years, he stood by the poor at times when they most needed him. His welfare model, "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas", is being implemented to ensure 100 percent saturation of government schemes. Programmes like broadband for all, tap water for all, housing for all, electricity for all, LPG for all, toilets for all, direct benefit transfers, crop insurance, increased minimum support price and Kisan Samman Nidhi for farmers, pension schemes for small entrepreneurs and the working class, all epitomise this approach centred around empowerment.
For decades, politicians in India used the poor as a tool to come to power. Prime Minister Modi used his power to empower the poor. The safety nets of financial inclusion, security, and empowerment fundamentally changed people's lives. India today has completely new stories to share.

William Dalrymple goes further back
Indian readers have long known William Dalrymple as the chronicler nonpareil of India in the early years of the British raj. His latest book, The Golden Road, is a striking departure, since it takes him to a period from about the third century BC to the 12th-13th centuries CE.
The bleat from the street
What with all the apps delivering straight to one’s doorstep, the supermarkets, the food halls and even the occasional (super-expensive) pop-up thela (cart) offering the woke from field-to-fork option, the good old veggie-market/mandi has fallen off my regular beat.

Upgrade your jeans
If you don’t live in the top four-five northern states of India, winter means little else than a pair of jeans. I live in Mumbai, where only mad people wear jeans throughout the year. High temperatures and extreme levels of humidity ensure we go to work in mulmul salwars, cotton pants, or, if you are lucky like me, wear shorts every day.
