 "By 2025 there will be 200 million young people in the age group of 21-41 with no jobs or less jobs and nobody knows what to do with these people.

Nearly 52% of people are employed in agriculture as compared to 62% 10 years earlier and number of population which depends on services and industries is growing at 10%. 
 
"Disparity between people in agriculture and in service industry is widening and that is getting social attention all across India which has led to various agitation across states," Pai told ET. 
 
He said that more and more companies are relying on automation and artificial intelligence in machine and this will lead to loss in jobs. 
 
"Rule based jobs will get eliminated. Much of middle class people are involved in rule based jobs. Rule based jobs can be made by algorithms. Machines are still not creative. People who are creative will remain," Pai said. 
 
He also feels that in sectors like banking too, jobs are shrinking because of automation of payment system with the help of ATMs, digital payments. 
 
"Bank branches and employment are now shrinking in America. In India in last 15 years, banks have growth 10-15 times in assets and liabilities but employment has grown 5 per cent. In India very soon there will be robo finance which will search all portals and give you bank loan quote in half an hour," Pai told ET.

New Delhi, Nov 28 () Healthcare industry body NATHEALTH on Thursday said it is working closely with the government to achieve the vision of providing universal health coverage in the country.
The body also suggested that corporate social responsibility (CSR) funds could be used to push the critical segments such as preventive health, skilling and digital technologies.
"We are working very closely with the government because unless we work together, universal health coverage to masses is just not going to happen," NATHEALTH President and Manipal Health Enterprises Chairman Sudarshan Ballal told reporters here.
He was speaking at the 6th Annual Summit of the NATHEALTH on the theme of 'Reimagining Collaboration to Strengthen India's Healthcare Growth Trajectory'.
The government and industry need to work together to realize the Prime Minister's vision of Health for All, he added.
Ballal also said that for transparency and ethical practices in the healthcare sector "we believe that we should have a code of ethics. Indian Medical Association (IMA), Ficci and many others have worked on this and we at NATHEALTH would like to facilitate so that the code of ethics is followed".
He also said that NATHEALTH would like to make India as a 'healthcare destination of the world'.
NATHEALTH Senior Vice President and Apollo Hospitals Group Vice Chairperson Preetha Reddy said: "Healthcare today is at an inflection point".
Both, the government and private sector have to work together to ensure that healthcare is accessible to the entire population of the country, she added.
More than anything else, "we need a world class brand for India and for that we have to give high quality good outcomes, so that the rest of world looks at India. There is a potential for people from other countries to come to India for healthcare, we just have to do more about it," Reddy said.
The importance for building trust between investors, policy makers and people seeking care - whether from India or from outside - cannot be undermined, she added.

Tech investor TV <keyword id="6491998" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mohandas-Pai">Mohandas Pai</keyword> today said that forcing beleaguered businessman <keyword id="14678" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vijay-Mallya">Vijay Mallya</keyword>, who owes over Rs 9,000 crore to several banks, to come back to India is a "bad strategy". 

	"I think it's a bad strategy to force him to come back because I don't think they have a strong case to do what they are doing," the former Chief Financial Officer of software major Infosys said. 
 

	Better strategy, he said, is to get the Debt Recovery Tribunal to pass an order invoking guarantee he has given to banks and attach his assets. 
 

	Today, there is no proof for or against Vijay Mallya asking him to pay back any money. There is no court order. Dispute is in the court. Court has not given any order. Everybody is saying 'pay back, pay back' but pay back what? For paying back, you need a court order...exactly how much to pay and all that. I think it's being badly handled," Pai told PTI. 
 

	Pai, co-founder of Aarin Capital, favoured requesting the Supreme Court to pass an order for negotiations with the liquor baron. 
 

	He noted that nobody has claimed that Mallya siphoned off money and indulged in money laundering till Enforcement Directorate (ED) went after him. 
 

	"Nobody knows what evidence ED has. None of the banks has found evidence, no body spoke about it. Now only ED is saying," said Pai, currently Chief Adviser to the Manipal Education and Medical Group. 
 

	He stressed the need for improving legal system in the country, noting that the case against Mallya was going on before DRT from the year 2013. 
 

	Pai said he was also against "naming and shaming" willful defaulters of bank loans. 
 

	"Once you lost money, there is no shame. Everybody knows you lost money, what is the shame? Shame is a middle class morality; shame is not there for business class or those who own business," he said. 
 

	"I don't think anybody's name should be made public. What should be done is: we need bankruptcy law to force them into bankruptcy, sell their assets and get back the money. Once there is bankruptcy law, they are forced into bankruptcy; it (their names) will automatically become public," Pai said

'Forcing Vijay Mallya to come back to India is bad strategy'

China agreed to a UN Security Council push to blacklist Pakistan-based terrorist <keyword id="6459729" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="masood-azhar">Masood Azhar</keyword>, head of Pakistan-based group Jaish-e-Mohammad, in a breakthrough for India-China relations. Beijing's decision, ending a decade of opposition, came after India stepped up diplomatic efforts to convince the Chinese government that Azhar should be labelled a terrorist following a deadly terror attack in the disputed territory of Kashmir in February. Following China's approval, the UN will issue a travel ban and arms embargo against Azhar. The move will also freeze his finances and assets. Jaish-e-Mohammad, also known as JeM, claimed responsibility for a suicide attack in Kashmir's Pulwama district which killed 40 Indian troops. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping "have developed a chemistry of trust with each other" since their meeting in Wuhan a year ago, said Madhav Nalapat, a professor of geopolitics at India's Manipal University. Beijing's approval of the UN sanctions "would be a win not for India or China but for the global war on terror", Nalapat said soon before Beijing's decision was announced. "Terrorists have neither a religion or a nationality, and should be opposed by all countries unitedly and in co-ordination." China, a permanent member of the Security Council, blocked the assembly's move to sanction Azhar in 2016 and 2017. India first proposed the sanctions in 2009. The US, France and Britain put forward the proposal again in March. China vetoed that motion, but placed a "technical hold" on the decision, citing the need for more time for a "comprehensive and thorough assessment". India's foreign secretary, Vijay Keshav Gokhale, visited China last week, where he shared evidence of terrorist activities of JeM and Azhar, and raised the issue of banning the group at the UN with China's foreign minister, Wang Yi. "My information is that President Xi Jinping (who has had multiple conversations with Prime Minister Modi) decided that relations with India were too important to be held hostage any longer to the pro-Pakistan lobby, and intervened to ensure that the block on the designation of Azhar as a global terrorist was removed," Nalapat said. <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/south-asia/article/3001682/india-disappointed-after-china-again-delays-bid-add-masood">China delays bid to add head of JeM militant group to UN blacklist</a> "Opposition parties in India have mocked Modi for the Wuhan summit with Xi, but this move is among the fruits of Wuhan," he added. Pakistan's Prime Minister, Imran Khan, concluded a state visit to China on Sunday for the Belt and Road Forum and bilateral meetings with Chinese leaders. Xi told Khan at a meeting that he hoped Pakistan and India could "meet each other halfway" and improve their relations. Tensions flared after the Pulwama attacks, and China urged its two neighbours to exercise restraint. The attack ignited military engagement from both sides. <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/2189067/china-walks-fine-line-india-calls-united-nations-impose-anti">China walks line between Pakistan and India over sanctions call</a> Indian planes conducted cross-border strikes on suspected terrorist camps, and dogfights ensued after which both sides claimed to have shot down enemy fighter jets.

Bhansali comes in at Google after a 28-year stint at Microsoft, where he was last the Corporate Vice President of their Azure cloud division. Bhansali was also the India site head for the research and development of Azure. He also led the engineering efforts of Microsoft’s Office, Search, and Windows divisions. “Product innovation that enables digital transformation sits right at the core of Google Cloud’s mission. We’re very excited that Anil Bhansali has joined Google Cloud to help grow and scale our software development support efforts in India so we can continue expanding and advancing Google Cloud services that are used by customers in more than 150 countries worldwide,” Amit Zavery, Vice President, Engineering, Google LLC said on the appointment. Google has been expanding its cloud offering in India. In March 2020, Google announced that it was adding a second region to its Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in India. After Mumbai, it opened a Delhi cloud region. “GCP regions are the cornerstone of our cloud infrastructure, and they enable customers such as L&amp;T Finance, Manipal Hospital Group, Reliance Mutual Fund, Royal Enfield, TechMahindra, Truecaller, and many more to deliver high performing, secure, low latency, cloud-based services to their users, no matter where they are around the world,” the company had said in a statement. Google competes with <keyword id="1033762" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Microsoft-Azure">Microsoft Azure</keyword> and Amazon Web Services in the cloud business. However, in India, Google’s cloud business falls behind its two competitors. Ashutosh Sharma, Vice President and Research Director, Forrester, told IANS in July 2019 that AWS had the first-mover advantage, while Microsoft has the advantage of having more clients globally as well. "This is one of the key reasons why they hired Thomas Kurien (an Oracle veteran) to run their enterprise business. Google also suffers from a brand disadvantage when it comes to it being an enterprise IT vendor. They are considered providers of very niche services unlike AWS and Microsoft," Sharma told IANS.
