Modi hard sells India to big US business

Hard selling India with assurances of a business-friendly environment and a stable and simpler tax regime, Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited top US business to come and invest in India.



Addressing the US-India Business Council comprising 300 top US companies doing business with India here Tuesday, he promised to replace bureaucratic red tape with a red carpet.



The role of the government should be that of a facilitator, Modi said wrapping up his five day trip to the US all through which he has made a strong pitch for investment in India with a promise of extensive use of technology better infrastructure and labour reforms.



He invited US business leaders to come to India and join the "Make in India" campaign saying its a win-win situation as India is moving ahead with great speed.



Since coming to office four months ago, Modi said his government had cleared a record number of foreign investments though admittedly it had not been possible to make a great many changes in such a short span.



Before coming to Washington Monday, Modi had breakfast meetings in New York with 11 CEOs, including those of Google, Citigroup and Pepsico.



It was followed by one-on-one meetings with six other CEOs of companies like Boeing, IBM, GE and Goldman Sachs.



There too he had made the same pitch: India is open-minded and wants change. "We want change, but a change that is not one sided" and he is discussing with citizens, industrialists and investors how to go about it.



USIBCs Indian-American chairman Ajay Banga, who is also the CEO of MasterCard, expressing confidence that India-US trade can grow five fold from the current $100 billion in five years said: "The best days of US-India relations are coming."



US Chamber of Commerce president Tom Donohue also welcomed Modis commitment to replace "the red tape with the red carpet" and the governments commitment to labour and tax reforms.

'Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D': Flowers for Agent Cooper

Kyle.maclachlan

We've known since August that Kyle MacLachlan was coming to Marvel's Agent's of S.H.I.E.L.D. this season, but there was no realizing the full, surreal impact of seeing the erstwhile Agent Cooper in the Marvel universe until it actually happened.


Well, cue the snappy jazz and put on some damn good coffee, because MacLachlan — who is presumably Skye's father — shows up at the very end of Episode 2, "Heavy is the Head," and he is definitely weird. He has an equally bizarre little sidekick in Raina ("the girl in the flower dress") who's returned after an absence in Episode 1 that almost made us forget the huge hint-bombs she was dropping at the end of Season 1.

Why Denver Public School Students Are Protesting For AP History

Denver-protestk

Hundreds of students and teachers at Denver-area public schools are skipping classes to protest a school board proposal that could change the way AP U.S. History is taught in the district as well as board-mandated tweaks to teachers' pay


Two Denver high schools were shut down on Monday after a vast majority of teachers called in sick or took personal days while students picketed in the streets, chanting and waving signs that accused the district of trying to censor American history. The districtwide walkouts began the day after a particularly contentious Jefferson County school board meeting on Sept. 18 and have continued through Tuesday, the Denver Post reported. Read more...
