Referring to the Business Connect in 2023, he said MoUs of about Rs 53,000 crore were signed and in about half of them, steps have been taken for implementation. He said MoUs signed this year will also facilitate people and its implementation will be visible in the coming days. Meena said the state has established a State Investment Promotion Board that goes through proposals every week. He also said the state has created a single-window clearance system for the facilitation of the investors and there is a project monitoring system. He said officials, who are involved in giving clearances, have been urged to encourage investment proposals so that the state gets more investment and more employment opportunities are created He said a lot of skilled people came back to the state during COVID-19 and the state government facilitated them. Many people were from the textile sector in different parts of the country and were provided working facilities and they established new textile units. He said that inspired by this, the state government created 24 lakh square feet of "play and plug" infrastructure in 2022-23 and 17 lakh square feet was allocated to 135 units. Meena said the "plug and play" infrastructure is greatly helping IT, textile sector and food processing sectors as at a rate of Rs per 4 to 6 per square foot per month lease rate - infrastructure facilities have been made available for very low charges. The small and medium-scale investors have got this readymade space available which has water, electricity and connectivity and all these are located in industrial areas, he noted. Big investments have taken place in IT, the textile sector, food processing and the state government is working towards land availability and facilities under plug and play initiative. He said the investment projects are seen not only as that of the Industry Department but of "Bihar as a unit" and all departments concerning investment opportunities hold joint meetings. Meena said industrialists and investors have been informed of sector-specific and umbrella policies and suggestions received have also been incorporated into the policies. He said the state government is open to suggestions from investors to get more investment. Meena said the state has witnessed a lot of change in the last 15-20 years. "In Bihar, the Ganga River had just four bridges before 2005, now the number has reached 14. The connectivity challenge that was there earlier has now been resolved and it is benefitting every sector," he stated. The Bihar Business Connect 2024 connected industry leaders, government officials, and experts to foster partnerships and collaborations. During the two-day summit, the leaders engaged in meaningful discussions and knowledge-sharing sessions with industry leaders to explore investment opportunities in Bihar.

Cholesteatoma Market to Exhibit a Remarkable CAGR of 3.11% by 2029, Size, Share, Trends, Key Drivers, Demand, Opportunity Analysis and Competitive Outlook 12-20-2024 10:03 PM CET | Advertising, Media Consulting, Marketing Research Press release from: Data Bridge Market Research Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the cholesteatoma market was valued at USD 195.23 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 249.43 million by 2029, registering a CAGR of 3.11% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. A cholesteatoma is a noncancerous skin growth that can form beneath the eardrum in the central portion of the ear. It could be a birth abnormality, but it's more likely to be the result of recurring middle ear infections. A cholesteatoma can only be treated surgically. To avoid difficulties that may arise if the cyst grows larger, it must be removed. Once a cholesteatoma has been identified, antibiotics, ear drops, and meticulous ear cleaning will almost certainly be given to treat the infected cyst, reduce inflammation, and drain the ear.

Among elites across the ideological spectrum, there's one point of unifying agreement: Americans are bitterly divided. What if that's wrong? What if elites are the ones who are bitterly divided while most Americans are fairly unified? History rarely lines up perfectly with the calendar (the "sixties" didn't really start until the decade was almost over). But politically, the 21st century neatly began in 2000, when the election ended in a tie and the color coding of electoral maps became enshrined as a kind of permanent tribal color war of "red vs. blue." Elite understanding of politics has been stuck in this framework ever since. Politicians and voters have leaned into this alleged political reality, making it seem all the more real in the process. I loathe the phrase "perception is reality," but in politics it has the reifying power of self-fulfilling prophecy. Like rival noble families in medieval Europe, elites have been vying for power and dominance on the arrogant assumption that their subjects share their concern for who rules rather than what the rulers can deliver. In 2018, the group More in Common published a massive report on the "hidden tribes" of American politics. The wealthiest and whitest groups were "devoted conservatives" (6%) and "progressive activists" (8%). These tribes dominate the media, the parties and higher education, and they dictate the competing narratives of red vs. blue, particularly on cable news and social media. Meanwhile, the overwhelming majority of Americans resided in, or were adjacent to, the "exhausted majority." These people, however, "have no narrative," as David Brooks wrote at the time. "They have no coherent philosophic worldview to organize their thinking and compel action." Lacking a narrative might seem like a very postmodern problem, but in a postmodern elite culture, postmodern problems are real problems. It's worth noting that red vs. blue America didn't emerge ex nihilo. The 1990s were a time when the economy and government seemed to be working, at home and abroad. As a result, elites leaned into the narcissism of small differences to gain political and cultural advantage. They remain obsessed with competing, often apocalyptic, narratives. That leaves out most Americans. The gladiatorial combatants of cable news, editorial pages and academia, and their superfan spectators, can afford these fights. Members of the exhausted majority are more interested in mere competence. I think that's the hidden unity elites are missing. This is why we keep throwing incumbent parties out of power: They get elected promising competence but get derailed -- or seduced -- by fan service to, or trolling of, the elites who dominate the national conversation. There's a difference between competence and expertise. One of the most profound political changes in recent years has been the separation of notions of credentialed expertise from real-world competence. This isn't a new theme in American life, but the pandemic and the lurch toward identity politics amplified distrust of experts in unprecedented ways. This is a particular problem for the left because it is far more invested in credentialism than the right. Indeed, some progressives are suddenly realizing they invested too much in the authority of experts and too little in the ability of experts to provide what people want from government, such as affordable housing, decent education and low crime. The New York Times' Ezra Klein says he's tired of defending the authority of government institutions. Rather, "I want them to work." One of the reasons progressives find Trump so offensive is his absolute inability to speak the language of expertise -- which is full of coded elite shibboleths. But Trump veritably shouts the language of competence. I don't mean he is actually competent at governing. But he is effectively blunt about calling leaders, experts and elites -- of both parties -- stupid, ineffective, weak and incompetent. He lost in 2020 because voters didn't believe he was actually good at governing. He won in 2024 because the exhausted majority concluded the Biden administration was bad at it. Nostalgia for the low-inflation pre-pandemic economy was enough to convince voters that Trumpian drama is the tolerable price to pay for a good economy. About 3 out of 4 Americans who experienced "severe hardship" because of inflation voted for Trump. The genius of Trump's most effective ad -- "Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you" -- was that it was simultaneously culture-war red meat and an argument that Harris was more concerned about boutique elite concerns than everyday ones. If Trump can actually deliver competent government, he could make the Republican Party the majority party for a generation. For myriad reasons, that's an if so big it's visible from space. But the opportunity is there -- and has been there all along.Telangana not to allow benefit shows of movies, actors’ theatres visitsJonah Goldberg: What if most Americans aren't bitterly divided?
The United States has imposed sanctions on several Pakistani entities, including the state-owned National Development Complex (NDC), over their alleged involvement in the development of long-range ballistic missiles. Announced earlier this week by the State Department, the sanctions target the NDC, which it claims is instrumental in the development of the Shaheen series of ballistic missiles. The measures include asset freezes and bans on transactions with US entities. US President Joe Biden’s Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer, speaking at an event on Thursday, underscored concerns over Pakistan’s advancing missile technology. He stated that the developments in long-range ballistic systems could potentially pose a threat to the United States. Finer added that Islamabad’s growing capabilities raise “serious questions” about its intentions, particularly regarding the acquisition of advanced rocket-motor testing equipment. US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said Wednesday on X that the United States had “been clear and consistent about our concerns” regarding weapons proliferation. He added that Washington would “continue to engage constructively with Pakistan on these issues.” In addition to the NDC, three Karachi-based entities – Akhtar and Sons Private Limited, Affiliates International, and Rockside Enterprise – have also been sanctioned for their alleged roles in supporting Pakistan’s ballistic missile program. These sanctions follow similar measures imposed earlier this year on other foreign entities, including a Chinese research institute. The US State Department had accused them of working for the NDC in developing Pakistan’s long-range ballistic missile capabilities. Pakistan maintains that its missile development is defensive and necessary for maintaining regional stability. The country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the punitive measures as groundless, warning that they “have dangerous implications for strategic stability of our region and beyond.” It further accused the United States of “double standards” for waiving licensing requirements for advanced military technology to other countries. The sanctions were also opposed by the party of Pakistan’s imprisoned former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Zulfiqar Bukhari, a spokesperson for Khan, criticized the Biden administration on X, stating, “We strongly oppose US sanctions on the National Development Complex and three commercial entities.”
