India lifted more people out of poverty in 12 years than America has people. World Bank: 496 million crossed the $4.20 a day line in 2011-2023, and extreme poverty fell from 27.1% to 2.6%. The 81 crore free ration jibe? That's NFSA coverage fixed by law in 2013, not poverty.

A few dead names? The EC counted 2.7 crore. Tharoor said today a dead voter or two beats cutting 130 million real ones? Of ~13.3 crore cut in SIR, EC data: 2.7 crore dead, 1.01 crore duplicates. Another 9.5 crore were absent or shifted; real ones can rejoin via Form 6.

The headline skips the 20,000 ballots. DOJ wanted mail ballots of about 20,000 California voters it calls noncitizens set aside. Judge Trina Thompson, a Biden appointee, said no Friday night, a day after unions sued, and it covers every state. It runs to Nov 16, past the vote.

Modi just put the secular civil code back on the table. States got there first: Uttarakhand's UCC in force since 27 Jan 2025, Gujarat and Assam got presidential assent in Sept, MP passed its bill in July. Article 44 asked for this in 1950. It's arriving one state at a time.

India's opposition impeached the election chief at Kharge's house. Parliament never let it get that far. On 6 April, Om Birla and CP Radhakrishnan refused to admit the motions to remove CEC Gyanesh Kumar. Passing one needs two-thirds in both Houses. INDIA bloc won 234 of 543.

Bangladeshi Hindu woman Pritilata and her minor daughter Agami gang-raped and killed by Islamists. Minor son Ayush also killed in front of his father Ganapati, whose throat was slit.
A community that cannot protect its mothers and children cannot keep a future. Pritilata and Agami were raped and killed. Ayush was murdered in front of his father. The family was finished in one night.
Germany's "AI tax" isn't a bill. It's a cabinet arguing with itself... Education minister Prien: "no other way." Digital minister Wildberger floated it 13 Oct, then same day: "We have enough taxes." Economy minister Reiche: roll AI out first. Merz: sceptical. Plans: none yet.

🚨The world’s 10 largest refineries: 1 in the US, 0 in Europe.
8 of them are in Asia, the Gulf and Africa.
🇮🇳 India’s Jamnagar alone can process 1.4m barrels a day, more than 3 times Europe’s biggest plant.
Europe closed a quarter of its refineries in 20 years and now imports its diesel.
This week the bill showed up in results.
Shell, TotalEnergies and bp made $ 28bn in Q3, and about $ 13bn of it came from the refineries Europe still has.
I run the numbers on all 3, and show what happens to each when margins fall, in my latest article: themerchantsnews.substack.co…
