๐Ÿ…พ๏ธWhat is Humility in Public Discourse?

๐Ÿ”ฐAns : Humility in public discourse refers to the ability to engage in discussions and debates with a sense of respect, openness, and self-awareness. It emphasizes understanding and valuing the perspectives of others, acknowledging one's own limitations, and refraining from personal attacks or aggressive rhetoric.

๐Ÿ…พ๏ธFirst-Order and Second-Order Claims: First-order claims focus on the merits of actions and decisions.
Second-order claims evaluate individuals' character based on their views, often leading to personal attacks.
Dismissing first-order concerns and focusing on second-order claims creates a hypocritical and divisive environment
.

๐Ÿ…พ๏ธImpact of Polarization: Personal attacks and hate speech prevent meaningful dialogue and create divisions.

โœ…Gs-3 : Inclusive growth/ Economic development

โžก๏ธCentral
premise of the author : The central premise of the author is that electoral politics often swings between two extremes: development-focused promises and short-term populist measures. Both have their pros and cons, and the need of the hour is to find a balanced approach.

โš ๏ธโ€ผ๏ธMy problem with these sort of articles?- they dont tell us WHAT THIS BALANCED APPROACH should be! and illogically supports freebie model of governance- that is not a solution at all!

โžก๏ธSo here is my take on this issue : You are free to add any new ideas that come to your mind

โšœ๏ธ1. Create a Comprehensive Infrastructure Review Board (CIRB) through law to evaluate these projects
โšœ๏ธ2. Amend the FRBM act, 2003 to include PSUs- Benchmarking against international standards like the European Union's Stability and Growth Pact.( Read about this)
โšœ๏ธ3. INTRODUCE - Populism Impact Assessment
