Economy seems to be the last of the concerns of the government after operation J&K

The economy is one area where muscular nationalism will not work. On the contrary, it may work to the detriment of the economy.

The Rashtrapati Bhavan is the symbol of the seat of power of the government. Within a one-kilometre radius are Parliament, the Prime Minister’s Office, and North Block and South Block that house the key ministries of Home, Finance, Defence and External Affairs. The Prime Minister’s official residence is also within the radius of one kilometre as are the homes of the Vice-President, the Speaker, the three Defence Chiefs and most members of Parliament.
