POST TRUTH PATRIOTISM
Gulshan RaiNational Cyber Security
Coordinator
Cheering our armed forces is essential, but can we also constructively use our
own patriotism to make it more actionable for the nation?
CYBER PATRIOTISMWe need strategy and policies – at the national, corporate and individual levels. We need these across verticals – Fintech, internal security, social and information technology. We need a whole regime of international diplomacy and multilateral negotiations. We are raising a Cyber Patriotism Task Force to write India’s Cyber Security Doctrine.
CORPORATE PATRIOTISMWhat is patriotic corporate conduct? Besides fewer scams, paying taxes honestly, not being a wilful defaulter and not adding to Non-Performing Assets (NPAs) of banks, of course.
ECONOMIC PATRIOTISM MSMEs are the lifeline of the economy. They are a source of livelihood for millions of Indians. MSMEs, including kirana stores, are folding up. On the one hand is the MNC onslaught and on the other is big Indian business wanting to monopolise. We try to create a knowledge
based argument on what needs to change to protect and promote MSMEs.
POST TRUTH PATRIOTISMLies, mistaken beliefs, fake news and erroneous information endanger democracy. Ultimately, each one of us must do what we can at our individual OHYHO� WR�¿JKW�PLVLQIRUPDWLRQ�ZDUIDUH�DQG�safeguard India’s cherished democracy.
57TH SKOCH SUMMIT will serve as a wake-up call to all Indians to remind us of our duties and the fact that patriotism has to be practiced.
