  • Debarghya Das Critiques India’s Growing Air Quality Health Crisis

    Debarghya Das Critiques India’s Growing Air Quality Health Crisis

    Debarghya “Deedy” Das, a venture capitalist of Indian origin, has sparked a big conversation about the dangerous air quality in India. He says it’s a serious health problem that many people seem to ignore. Currently living in San Francisco, Das took to social media to share his experiences, which resonated with many people but also got some criticism.

    Feeling the Air Quality Crisis Firsthand

    Das, who used to live in Kolkata and moved to the U.S. for college, talked about how he feels whenever he visits India. He said, “Every time I’m in India, my eyes water, I sneeze a lot, and I see many people coughing.” His parents think these symptoms are just allergies, but they go away when they visit him in the U.S.

    During a recent wedding in Delhi, Das spoke with guests from the U.S. who were shocked by how bad the air quality was. At first, they were polite, but then they expressed their concern about the air being unsafe, even for simple things like exercising outdoors.

    Air Quality Issues Go Beyond Delhi

    Even though Delhi is famous for its pollution problems, Das pointed out that bad air quality is not just a problem there. He said, “The idea that only winter in Delhi is bad is silly. Even Bangalore, which is seen as cleaner, has people coughing and dealing with allergies. I lived there for a year and know it’s true.”

    Das believes that it’s not a show of strength to tolerate bad air. He argued that “surviving tough environments is not something we should brag about. It’s a problem that needs our attention.”

    Mixed Reactions Online

    Many non-resident Indians (NRIs) and people from India agreed with Das’s points, seeing them as important. But some didn’t like what he said and felt he was exaggerating. Others thought he was just weak. Despite the mixed feedback, his original post gained over 1.9 million views, 28,000 likes, and more than 1,000 comments.

    The discussion sparked by Das’s comments shines a light on an important issue that affects millions all over India. While some dismissed his worries, many viewed his remarks as a call to action on environmental problems that threaten public health.

    Das reminds us that air quality isn’t just about how comfortable we are; it’s about keeping the health of everyone in the country safe. As he put it, “We live in denial of a serious health crisis.”

  • Gold Prices Fall Again, Silver Surges: Understand the Trends!

    Gold Prices Fall Again, Silver Surges: Understand the Trends!

    Gold prices fell for the second day in a row, dropping by Rs 200 to Rs 79,000 for every 10 grams in the national capital, according to the All India Sarafa Association. On Monday, gold was priced at Rs 79,200 for the same amount.

    In contrast, silver prices jumped up by Rs 2,400, reaching Rs 92,400 per kg, up from Rs 90,000. Traders say the rise in silver prices is mainly due to its demand in industries.

    Gold with 99.5% purity also dropped by Rs 200, closing at Rs 78,600 for 10 grams, down from Rs 78,800 on Monday. In futures trading on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold for February delivery went up by Rs 146, or 0.19%, to Rs 76,833 per 10 grams. Meanwhile, silver for March delivery increased by Rs 1,251, or 1.38%, to Rs 92,061 per kg.

    Around the world, Comex gold futures rose by $7.40, or 0.28%, reaching $2,665.90 per ounce. Just the day before, gold and silver prices were highly influenced by a stronger dollar after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to impose heavy tariffs on BRICS countries. This news worried traders and pushed the dollar up, also causing the Indian rupee to weaken significantly.

    Gold’s safe demand was affected by signs of a hold in the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, but tensions between Russia and Ukraine still encouraged some buying of gold. Chintan Mehta, the CEO of Abans Holdings, mentioned that gold prices stayed steady because of better-than-expected U.S. manufacturing PMI data, which helped boost the dollar’s strength. He also noted that Christopher Waller, a U.S. Federal Reserve governor, is still hopeful about falling inflation and a strong job market, hinting at possible interest rate cuts in December.

    In the Asian market, silver is trading 1.93% higher at $31.46 per ounce.
