All Indians Matter is a digital home for conversations with and about India on the issues that truly matter. For most of our post-Independence years, this was done by the news media. However, in recent times, the media have been found wanting. As a result, the issues that should be highlighted are sidelined and the voices that should find a megaphone are muffled. This podcast is an effort to engage with everyone who cares about India, its Constitution, its liberal and secular values.
All Indians Matter is the creation of Ashraf Engineer, who was a senior journalist with some of India’s leading newspapers for 17 years. His media work included a stint in 2011 in Afghanistan, where he trained and mentored journalists. He subsequently quit the news media and is now part of the brand communication industry.

Workplace burnout has reached epidemic levels
A new survey shows that India tops the world in workplace burnout, with 59% of respondents reporting symptoms. While a range of factors – from the competitive job market to urban stress – can be blamed, burnout can have worrying physical and emotional impacts. The social stigma around mental health doesn’t help either. Focusing on work-life balance, as well as physical and emotional wellness, is vital. And it’s not just up to the individual; the organisation must do its bit too. Please listen to the latest episode of All Indians Matter.

What generic drugs mean to India
Generic drugs are a great way of making healthcare more affordable to those who really need it. They are becoming increasingly popular and seem to have strong government backing. However, doctors claim that they being arm-twisted into prescribing them even when there are questions about their quality endangering patient safety.

‘Being born a Hindu, I have a responsibility to tell the story of Muslims’
I came across a musical Daastangoi performance, ‘Jo Dooba So Paar’, by chance. And it showed me how the arts can bring people together. It’s much needed, especially in these times of great social fissures. The show embodied the message of harmony that the intertwined lives of Nizamuddin Auliya and Amir Khusrau delivered and reminded us that communities across the world are in need of something to bring them together as a unified society.
All Indians Matter speaks to Ajitesh Gupta, lead and co-director of the show. The conversation crackled; don’t miss it. -
Women tourists don’t feel safe in India; why we need to change that
The recent gangrape of a Brazilian tourist in Jharkhand underscores why India suffers from a serious perception problem. Several foreign governments have issued advisories to women tourists asking them to be careful while travelling in India. Tourism industry leaders have also demanded greater safety measures.
As women travellers leave scathing reviews and horrifying news reports of sexual assaults appear with alarming regularity, tourism numbers are not reviving in India.
The UN World Tourism Organisation reported a 90% recovery for international tourism in 2023 compared to pre-COVID 2019. For India, it’s under 75%, according to the Bureau of Immigration figures.

Ages behind, India finally enters the race for lithium
India is a late starter in the quest for lithium as it transitions towards new-age energy. It has picked up five lithium blocks for mining in Argentina and is looking for more across the world.
If it has to reduce its dependence on China for lithium and to catch up with it, India will need to pick up pace not just in mining but also processing of the ore. But it’s not easy, takes a long time and there are serious environmental concerns.
