On Saturday, in an election meeting, Rahul Gandhi said that if Congress came to power, they could redistribute the wealth of India.

Rahul Gandhi is the former president of the grand old party and one of the most important opposition leaders. However, he sometimes forgets his aura and intellect and puts himself in the centre of attraction when he speaks. He has always been a part of political discussion for his rhetoric, and once again, it happened. On Saturday, in an election meeting, he said that if Congress came to power, they could redistribute the wealth of India.

If the Congress is elected, the party would survey to determine who is the country’s wealthiest person and a redistribution exercise. “To determine the precise number and status of minorities, backward castes, SCs, STs, and others, we will first carry out a caste census. The institutional and financial survey will then start. Then, based on their population, we will undertake the historic task of allocating the wealth of India, jobs, and other welfare schemes to these segments,” he added.

Concept of Wealth Redistribution

This concept of wealth redistribution is taken from Karl Marx’s 1848 “s book Communist Manifesto. The transfer of income and wealth (including material property) from some people to others via a social mechanism, such as taxation, welfare, public services, land reform, monetary policies, confiscation, divorce, or tort law, is known as redistribution of income and wealth and usually used about redistribution within the economy as a whole, as opposed to between specific individuals.

Is wealth redistribution possible?

Numerous nations have previously chosen to implement wealth redistribution programs in various ways. While the United States of America uses taxes and transfers with the same level of progressivity, nations like Finland and Sweden have relied on progressive transfer systems. India also has a progressive tax system in which the wealthiest pay at least 30% in taxes, with a significant portion of that amount going toward welfare programs for the underprivileged. Cash transfer programs are also included in these redistribution initiatives.

Progressive Tax

A progressive tax is one in which the tax rate rises (or progresses) in proportion to the increase in taxable income. It applies a higher tax rate to individuals with higher incomes and a lower tax rate to those with lower incomes. Usually, tax brackets that divide taxpayers into income-based groups are used to accomplish this.

2024 Total Solar Eclipse: A solar eclipse is an astronomical event in which the Moon passes in front of the Earth and the Sun, partially or completely blocking the Sun’s light.

A complete solar eclipse that will transform day into night over North America on April 8 is expected to provide skywatchers with an amazing astronomical show. Though they are only visible from a few places, total eclipses are spectacular and cause the sky to go dark. This is the reason why seeing an eclipse is sometimes referred to as a once-in-a-lifetime event.

What is a Solar Eclipse?

When the Moon moves in front of the Earth and the Sun, it can completely or partially obscure the Sun’s light, a process known as a solar eclipse. An area of the Moon that obscures the Sun creates a shadow on Earth known as a “path of totality.” This path traverses the surface as a rather thin band. Anybody standing inside this ring can see a total solar eclipse if the clouds and weather align. The sky will grow gloomy, resembling dawn or dusk, when the Moon fully obscures the Sun in the line of totality.

Date and timings:

The 2024 total solar eclipse will take place on April 8. The totality, or complete darkening of the sky, will be visible over a 185-kilometre span between Mexico, the US, and Canada. It can also be visible in up to eighteen different US states. However, skywatchers in India won’t be able to see it. 

The complete solar eclipse will start at 9:12 pm Indian Standard Time (IST) on April 8, reach totality at 10:08 pm, and conclude at 2:22 am on April 9, 2024. Totality will strike Mexico’s Pacific coast first, at approximately 11:07 am PDT, and exit Maine at approximately 1:30 pm PDT.

Duration 

Although totality will only persist for approximately four minutes, the process will take roughly two and a half hours. According to NASA, the greatest spectacle might endure up to 4 minutes and 27 seconds during complete darkness. 

How to see the eclipse safely? 

The brightness of the Sun’s surface is so great that staring at even a small fraction of it can damage individual retinal cells. During its partial stages, skywatchers worldwide are encouraged to wear protective eyewear, such as authorised eclipse glasses. If you don’t, you risk burning the retinas of your eyes, causing irreversible damage or even blindness.

How to watch online?

If you cannot see the solar eclipse in person, you can watch the live feed from NASA. Beginning on April 8 at 5:00 pm GMT (10:30 pm IST), the space agency will broadcast live until 8:00 pm GMT (1:30 am IST).
