GDP growth of USA is 2%, UK 1%, Gujarat 8%, Bihar 12%. Does this mean that Nitin is better then rest? Not really, Bihar is at the bottom, and therefore has tons of room for improvement.

Nice attempt to push the nitish kumar agenda. But cherry-picking individual stats while ignoring the broader trends is transparently dishonest. You will always find some stat which goes against your target, and besides, the lack of educational achievement among muslim girls tells a lot more about muslim society and its closeted mindset, than about mr.modi.

Equitable Growth @ Oxus Investments "Asset Management fees are 1% (annualized rate) of assets managed plus 15% of net profits, computable at the end of every calendar year." If you invest Rs100 and if they make Rs 5 profits Mr SB firm will take away Rs 1.75 so you will get Rs 3.25. SB and you both win equitable growth. If RB firm make lose and 100 become 95 still they will take Rs 1 so total lose will be 6 and not five to investor. So SB win again not so equitable to you. Equitable growth for SB is tail you lose head I win. All these mumbo-jumbo of stats does not work anymore. In a game there are always winner and loser and it%u2019s no good to blame coach and others. Only idiot Economist wants equitable distribution of resources as it is not possible while wise will say only thing could have been distributed equally is opportunities and then it%u2019s up to individual to grab it.
