Good morning, we need your help!!

Since May 2015, The Wire has been committed to the truth and presenting you with journalism that is fearless, truthful, and independent. Over the years there have been many attempts to throttle our reporting by way of lawsuits, FIRs and other strong arm tactics. It is your support that has kept independent journalism and free press alive in India.

If we raise funds from 2500 readers every month we will be able to pay salaries on time and keep our lights on. What you get is fearless journalism in your corner. It is that simple.

Contributions as little as ₹ 200 a month or ₹ 2500 a year keeps us going. Think of it as a subscription to the truth. We hope you stand with us and support us.

Brown University Senior Fellow and noted researcher Yamini Aiyar says there is a need to organically manage the transition from informal to formal economy, from agriculture to industry, from rural to urban sector.

This cannot happen with flawed, top down schemes like those announced for employment and agriculture in the budget.

Bad policies over the years have created long term structural weaknesses in the economy.
