A female Tourist surprised after seeing Indian healthcare system.

An American tourist was surprised after experiencing India's healthcare system and affordability.

Given that in America, they need to sell a kidney to afford a single doctor's appointment, that might be true...

And in India, Govt try to provide best health care service in Hospitals

Maybe some people will not agree but I personally felt it that what  govt stands when it comes for a life of citizen

About Mechazilla:

• It is the nickname for the large 400-ft rocketcatching structure at SpaceX's Starbase.

Feature • It features two enormous mechanical arms, often referred to as "chopsticks." These arms are designed to catch the Super Heavy booster in midair as it returns to Earth.

Working of Mechazilla •

Launch and Ascent: The SpaceX Starship rocket, along with its Super Heavy booster, launches from the ground.

Booster Separation : After reaching a certain altitude, the booster separates from the upper stage of the rocket.

Controlled Descent : The booster begins descending back to Earth, using precision thrusters to control its path.

• Catching the Booster : As the booster nears the landing site, Mechazilla's giant arms move into position. The booster hovers briefly before the arms catch it, ensuring a safe and controlled landing.

Significance:
Re-useable: • This new method of rocket recovery is far more efficient and reusable compared to traditional landing techniques.

Quite informative fact.

FY 2023-24 (Centre)
Tax to GDP Ratio: 11.7%
Direct Tax to GDP ratio: 6.6%
Indirect Tax to GDP ratio: 5.1%

Proportion of Direct : Indirect tax = 56.7: 43.3

[States tax to GDP ratio is approx. 5.5% of GDP]

FY 2024-25: (Provisional) Centre
Personal: Rs. 11.87 lakh crore
Corporate: Rs. 10.2 lakh crore
GST: Rs. 10.6 lakh crore
Other Indirect taxes (Customs, Excise...): Rs. 5.5 lakh crore

Our Personal income tax is progressive while Corporate income tax is proportional. But Indirect taxes (GST & others) are regressive. So, it is always a better policy that tax collection should be more from direct taxes (as compared to indirect taxes) which is exactly happening in the economy.

Tax Buoyance (% change in tax revenue/ % change in nominal GDP) has crossed 2 which is very good sign for the economy.
