what can we say about india's renewables build out? is it running in parallel with its efforts to bring more electric vehicles on the road? well, steve, and unfortunately, that's a obama, as far as the e sector in india is concerned, renewables are not getting up in a big way. or india continues to be largely, according to pendant economy, anywhere between 70 to 80 percent of energy needs are met by all. and that holds true for the electric vehicles segment as well. there are plans, there are a lot of discussions at the central level as well as a state govern level to increase the share of renewables in india, energy mix. but those plans are you have to take effect. so effectively, the e sector also largely remains dependent on call the charging stations. infrastructure is still inadequate across the country. but as more and more charging stations go up for the usage of call behind, that is only likely to go up. steven charge, we have a better sense of how important the auto industry could be for india in the years ahead, especially wh

in fact, 24 states in india and the six states in north india which had high fertility rates the ratesre coming down because the government through the new programming is focusing in these high fertility districts. third, there's greater access to larger number of contraceptives . every time a new contraceptive is introduced, there is a 6% to 12% increase globally or within any country where it is increased. we had a much higher fertility rate among muslims earlier but the muslim fertility rate has declined very sharply in the last two decades, especially in the last decade and a growing middle class as well as the fact that people value education for girls more than they used to is what is helping. and finally, age at marriage is increasing, which also helps with fertility decline, as well as postponement of the first child and spacing method. nastasia: poonam despite all of that though we are still expecting india to overtake china as the world's most populated country by potentially next year. and i see that's already beginning to spur talk of a permanent seat on the u.n. security c

but a bargain is a bargain and india has been buying.some cases, at prices around $30 a barrel cheaper than brent crude. injanuary and february, india didn't import any oilfrom russia. not a drop. but since then, they have been hoovering it up with russia their second biggest source of oil in may. to put this in perspective, some industry experts predict that india will buy more of the kremlin�*s crude in five months this year than in the whole of last year. here's our man in mumbai, nikhil inamdar, to give us a picture from the ground. india shares deep and historic ties with russia, and has taken a resolutely middle—of—the—road position when it comes to russia's invasion of ukraine, abstaining from voting on any of the resolutions that have been moved, either by the west, or by russia, in the united nations. but when it comes to business and trade, its stance has been very clearly dictated by economic compulsions, rather than by geopolitics. new delhi's purchases of russian oil have hit record highs, and indian companies have been snap

if india ignore the climate crisis. in 2015 more than 190 countries agreed in paris to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. india pledged to reduce its carbon emissions and increase forest cover that would absorb up to 3000000000 tons of carbon dioxide. the country wants 40 percent of its electricity to come from renewables by 2030. and india seems to be on track. down the 10 we are less than 20 megawatts. we now have more than 100000 megawatts of wind them. soda and biomass condition in many other india has sunlight in abundance, and labor is cheap. today, india generates the most affordable solar power in the world. but that's not enough to satisfy the country's growing energy needs. 2 thirds of its electricity still comes from fossil fuels like gold. the country has made no pledges to phase it out . on the contrary, the government is opening more coal mines and called power plants than ever before . india is continued re lines on coal based power makes the world turn biggest polluter after china and the u. s.

and india is a, is an energy deficient country. we need more gas and oil, which is why over the last few months are in ports of oil from russia have increased very dramatically. this is, of course, coming by the sea route. but as far as gas has been sent, i think gas is a rush. i would also be looking for new markets. and india would also like to have rob or diversified supply of gas at cheaper rates. now, just as russia and germany in the 1970s had done the gas for bite steel, and that was the beginning of the, of the cooperation between russia and the west on the economic side, the soviet union and the risks as similarly i think that we should look at gas pipelines from russia incorporating also the possibility of getting gas from does up cost on the minister on the caspian basin. iran, maybe they could be swapped beetles, maybe the gas doesn't have to be transported all the way through the bush and gulf budget can be, you know, consumed in the northern regions of iran and iran can give it gas from its food. it's annette. the boa

this could help india in many ways. for example, india has been pushing for more representation internationally. experts say that concerns and demands could carry more weight, especially at forums like the united nations. on the economic front, this makes india the world's largest consumer market one that could invite a lot more investment. now, domestically population control has been a contentious electoral issue. experts have advocated for more focus on reproductive rights and justice. this includes improving girls education, increasing the number of women in the workforce and improving much on health. some of these efforts have been effective because the rate of population growth has slowed down considerably. but there are many challenges. the pandemic has reversed many of these gains. many women have been forced to quit the workforce, and there has been an increase in child marriages. experts say they need to be more awareness of family planning, becomes an issue of choice and not chance and coercion. oh, well ther

the defense minister of india, rental muscle, in september 2018. these received 2 or 3 wanted, in order to counter china, india already us. so what i was trying to see is that shine get relations, did a lot of dept previously. i know that now and when that is a conflict with china, the know where to will fall for the sustenance, military sustenance and so on. our time is running out. i want to try to squeeze in one more question about the tigers. i am, i want to close chairman now the founder of the people's republic of china, who said was that when someone is trying to wake a tiger a he or she needs to make sure that it has a long and i see now clearly the washington is now trying to contain what they called containing china d thing, they use the stick as a matter for, for the american strategy. the thing is 4 sided, and i do think it's long enough. oh, trust. i don't think the americans are contained in china. both china and america haven't g tool, as obama mentioned once in 2009. i think this is a misnomer that they are containing china, china c

just about $8000000000.00 in india. are chinese investment outside is $1.00 trillion dollars. majority of dark or a large part of it is in the u. s. i, in canada and europe. so what i was trying to say is about the, the statements given by the chinese ministers and it is part of the, the, a strategic depth between them. china, your trade is over $600000000000.00 and china's investment in c plus 17 countries is quite huge. italy, spain, or to all those countries. fortunately, greece and spain, a lot of investment in these banks on board is now functioning in any of the countries with infrastructure projects. and i just wanted say that these are all, it's no words. we have to see hard facts before we say that it is a content for 2nd of all, we have to leave it there one. and one last thing that i would add is that there was also a lot of interdependence. defend russia, western europe, or says they did not get that, you know, these 2 powers from, you know, going into a direct conflict in your brain. so, but i hope that thi

on the issue of you greed, india remained neutral. india did not take any sides, and that was in alignment with this mindset with this thinking that we cannot be a partisan, we would rebuild. not budge on our independence. liza we foreign policy. india stood by russia. these are we ukraine. india did not war against russia. at the united nations, and this is part of that might said that india will maintain its strategic independence. whether it's, you know, warrant you clean, or whether it's domestic reduction off weapons. ah, microsoft to, under order from the u. s. defense department has been depriving ukraine of digital sovereignty by controlling communication devices in the country. that's according to russian deputy foreign minister, a leg shit. a mullet of microsoft is fulfilling the orders of the pentagon and us intelligence agencies to take full control of the entire information infrastructure of ukraine into private of any digital sovereignty to lensky regime, has provided microsoft tools for surveillance, provocations, false flag computer attacks. apparently the notorious id army

this was the first visit of the beatles to india.or us, they symbolized, not just new music, but a new life. they personified the sixties, having learned that they were away, i arrived at the oberry hotel and sat in the lobby while everyone was running back and forth in waiting for the beatles guessing. where will they come from? i sat near the elevator and waited for brian to appear as i knew he is their manager. and after waiting for several hours, i saw him run up to him and said. excuse me mr. stop. i'm a reporter for all indian radio the government assigned me to interview with the beatles he stopped and said, how dare you, the guys won't do any interviews. i said that i was only conveying the government's decision. the interview has already been announced offensively. if it doesn't exist, i won't let it. i said that brian get me up would be fine, their work will somehow change, perhaps, as i said, there will be no cardinal changes will be, but the beatles have always evolved, and for this you need to change. at 7:00 i took the

the ongoing battle, the watering. cush, mia potentially a major flash point between india and pakistan is affecting the water needs of more than 2000000000 people in south asia. meanwhile, an increasing number of heat waves in mega cities, a driving up water consumption and coping with dwindling supplies has become a real struggle for them in here and for a bigger theft here. and the government is a part of this. of course. i don't think many bucks on is not about it. it can a giant tree planting action helped to save the melting glaciers we want. we want to restore and being hacked is in pakistan with nearly 20000000 inhabitants in its metropolitan area. karachi is pakistan's largest city and the country's economic center but in july 2015, the busy port city in the south was almost brought to a standstill as an extreme heat wave reeked havoc in its neighborhoods. with temperatures reaching 45 degrees celsius. more than a 1000 people died of dehydration and heat stroke in karachi alone. ah, hospitals were poorly equipped to handle the surge of heat stroke victims. the mortgage obasi sh

to conduct china, india already us. so what i was trying to see is that russia get relations, did a lot of dept previously and even now. and then that is a conflict with china. we know where to go for, for the sustenance, military sustenance and so on. our time is running out. i want to try to squeeze in one more question about the tigers. i am, i want to close chairman now the founder of the people's republic of china, who said was that when someone is trying to wake a tiger a he or she needs to make sure that it has a long enough see now clearly the washington is now trying to contain what they call containing china. do you think they use the stick as a matter for, for the american strategy? the thing is 4 sided and i do think it's long enough. oh, trust. i don't think the americans are contained in china, both china and america hybrid g tool, as obama mentioned once in 2009. i think this is a misnomer that they are containing china, china contacting us. they have a $780000000000.00 trade in debt or shared trade is a

$1000000000.00 in india. but chinese investment outside is $1.00 trillion dollars . majority of dark or a large part of it is in the us. i'm canada and europe. so what i was trying to say is funny about the, the statements given by the chinese ministers and digital exports of the day in the steady depth between them. china, your trade is over $600000000000.00. and i know the investment in c, c, 17 countries is quite huge. italy, spain want to go all those big countries or to illegally reason in spain. rural investment in these big chunk already is now functioning in any of the countries with infrastructure projects and others. i just wondered that all is no much we have to see hard facts before we say that containment, the professor, before we have to leave it, there was one last thing that i would add is that there was also a lot of interdependent in russia. western europe fortunate they did not because you know, these 2 powers from, you know, going into a direct conflict in your brain. so, but i quote that

i agree with my friend from india. i think what we are seeing in morocco actually is the same situation. we have higher infection rates in the rock right now. but when you look at hospitalisation and the death rates, the numbers is actually very limited and the numbers are the same. so i think what we're looking at, i think the, the highest problem we got, we got it with death. i don't think that's and comparing to me chrome, let's compare in the last year at the same time in morocco we have the data and it did that. we had the high and fiction and the high rates mortality and hospitalization and numerical right now we have a really very strong for pick. i may say of infection. but besides that we don't see hospitalization or that we are not looking at the same virus or most i have to say that. and i had to say that's comparing delta to be a 4 or 5 actually, we are not looking at the same virus on. so i think strongly a thing that the approaches should be changing. and to talk about the core with i think we have not at
