RBI Transfers 1.76 Lakh Crore to the Government


The recessing global economy and India's slip from 5th to 7th fastest growing economy is a major irritant for the Indian economy. The liquidity crisis is deteriorating public sector and needs a push which now seems possible after the Bimal Jalan's committee reports and RBIs compliance to transfer the surplus amount to government. The decision is being criticized by economists, speculated that, Urjit Patel, the former president of RBI, resigned due to pressure from the government.
The package from RBI might turn out to be a big relief as Indian government can channelize this money on:
  • Reviving the Public sectors of India
  • Injecting the much-needed liquidity in market
  • Providing better infrastructure
  • Assisting to recover the automobile sector in India which has been hit the hardest by slowing down of economy

If political clout is left behind and this money is facilitated in a way to regulate the economy and overcome the crisis that we're witnessing, this money transfer from RBI would be much appreciated. However, the other notion suggests that government might put this money into social schemes which might not be as pragmatic as our govt plans to hit the 5 trillion economy tag. The controversies and speculations would be unfolded only as the time passes by. Right now, the economy is struggling to keep up at the pace it used to be and the role of RBIs fund is going to be historical. If done correctly, the economy would once again catch up and will be on the way to grow and prosper.

Russia’s Melting Snow May Cost the World Economy 2 Billion Dollars

The impact of climate change on a vast permafrost area of Russia has become a principal apprehension for the country. This is primarily due to thawing of once permanently frozen ground which covers more than half of Russia. The liquefication of snow is putting buildings, pipelines and other infrastructure in peril. This problem needs to be addressed imperatively because the scale of damage will escalate every year. Rising temperatures are the epicentre of anxiety for mining, oil and gas companies. The permafrost area accounts for 15% of Russia’s oil and 80% of its gas operations. It is also home to miners including MMC Norilsk Nickel PJSC, the biggest refined nickel and palladium producer. Multiple new craters have been found in the gas-rich Yamal region, which is a risk to pipelines.

Residential real estate, worth $53 billion, might be als...
