    December 2018 Dear Friends, As 2018 draws to a close and we all start the holiday season, I am happy to bring to you this last issue of “India Economic News” for this year. We have been trying to expand our engagement with the Dutch Caribbean. The Hon’ble Prime Minister Eugene Rhuggenaath of Curaçao, a person of Indian origin, recently visited the Netherlands in November. I met with the Hon’ble Prime Minister and we also utilized his visit to introduce leading Indian companies in the Netherlands - HCL, TCS and Sun Pharma to him. The companies briefed him about their global operations. Hon'ble Prime Minister in turn informed them about opportunities for investment in Curacao and invited them to visit Curacao to explore business opportunities. We can look back on the year 2018 as a highly fulfilling year in terms of bilateral economic interactions. To recap, the highlights of the year were: A Seminar on Prospects for Indo-Dutch Cooperation in the area of Science & Technology on March 26 at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. The English version of the AWTI Advisory Letter on Dutch-Indian Collaboration in Science, Technology and Innovation was released at the event.

  • WORTH of MINISTERS Union Ministers Have Shared Information Regarding Their Moveable and Immovable Properties with Prime Minister Narendra Modi
    WORTH OF MINISTERS Union ministers have shared information regarding their moveable and immovable properties with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Some of these numbers vary from those filed in the affidavits before the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Railway Minister Sadananda Gowda, for example, recorded the largest increase in assets. The Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) claims most ministers have not declared the true worth of their assets to the Prime Minister’s Office.
