Freebies didn’t destroy India. Selective outrage did.

- Corporate tax write-offs (2014–2023): ₹12.6 lakh crore
- Loan write-offs by banks: ₹15.3 lakh crore
- Revenue foregone on customs/excise duty: ₹8+ lakh crore

But a few thousand crores on welfare for the poor? Suddenly, it’s “freebie culture.”

support for the rich = policy,
support for the poor = problem?
