    From 2025 onwards India's GDP will be lesser than Bangladesh. It's a confirmed report from IMF and SP. From 2019-2020 till date today (July 2021) all our youngster students from 10th, 2nd PUC, University Final Year, Professional Course Final Year students are getting their pass out certificates without any Competitive Final Exams. Our utterly failed Pradhansevak told CBSC 12th, std students, lastime in a virtual meeting that... "बच्चों सब खुश हो जावो. क्यों की मैंने तुम लोगों का अंतिम परीक्षा सब रद्द कर दी है." Any Educated Prime Minister will tell like that to any young students? राम जाने, इस देश का क्या होगा, इसका अच्चा नहीं होगा, इसका कुछ न कुछ जरूर होगा. लेकिन ये भाजपा हमारा सारा देश का बुरा हाल करेगा और सब को ले डूबेगा चुल्लू बार पानी में.
