The Problem of Unreliable Data in India
In modern times, what we are involved in is not truth seeking, but narrative battles. And it seems that for those narrative battles, experts are being pressed into service of one side or the other. How hard is it then to make an actual difference in the system, where all expertise is actually being pressed intoService of narratives? I wouldn't be so pessimistic. I think that people within the government had a fairly good idea of the actual situation. But there's still this problem. When you have these ideological teams, no one is concretely trying to make things better. Because one side is arguing that everything is perfect now. And the other side is argues that everything is a disaster now.
