Every claim we have checked.

• MOSPI national accounts still publish a large manufacturing GVA. The sector was not destroyed.
• India exports manufactured goods. “One does not see Made in India” is not a DGFT or commerce-ministry fact.
• Demonetisation and GST are dated policy events. They are not an official finding that manufacturing was destroyed.
• Import competition from China, Vietnam and Bangladesh is visible in some product lines. That is a share debate, not disappearance.

• RBI publishes outstanding MSME credit as a large and, in recent years, growing stock. That stock cannot exist if 90% of MSMEs officially get no bank loan.
• Priority-sector and MSME lending targets are official RBI and government categories.
• Many small firms are outside formal credit. That access gap is real. It is not the same as an official 90% “do not get bank loans” rate.
• PIB material on MSME credit refers to accounts and amounts sanctioned, not a 90% exclusion rate.

• DPIIT and the Ministry of Corporate Affairs continue to publish new company and LLP registrations. Those filings are entrepreneurship in the official legal sense.
• Destruction would mean the registration series stopped. It did not.
• Closures and stress in some firms are compatible with a living registration series. They are not an official verdict of “destroyed”.

• Public-enterprise employment changes with disinvestment, casual-versus-regular mix and which firms are counted as CPSEs.
• A drop from “around 14 lakh” to “7 lakh” needs one official table, one definition of PSU, and two dated observations. The sentence gives none of those.
• PIB and MOSPI material on CPSEs do not, in this file, supply those two endpoints as a single checked series.

• Government and aided schools remain the large majority of school enrolment in UDISE+ and Ministry of Education data. They were not privatised as a system.
• Public hospitals under state and Union health departments still operate. They were not sold as a bloc.
• BSNL remains a public-sector telecom company. Listing it as already privatised is false.
• Some ports and airports have seen private operation or PPP. That is not the same official fact as “ports and airports have been privatised” as a completed national sale, and it does not carry schools and hospitals with them.

• No official Indian labour forecast from MOSPI, NITI Aayog or the labour ministry publishes a 60% job cut from AI.
• PLFS is a survey of current usual-status employment. It is not a 60% future cut.
• Global consultant headlines are not Indian official statistics.

• The Time Use Survey records minutes in a day across employment, unpaid work, learning, social life and leisure — including screen and media time in published categories.
• It does not publish “8 hours a day watching Reels” as the average for Indian youth.
• Platform companies’ own product names are not MOSPI categories.

• PLFS does not publish a finding that companies take young people’s data in order to replace their jobs with AI as a national process.
• Data protection and platform work are policy topics. They are not that mechanism stated as an official labour fact.
• PIB material on employment and AI does not adopt this as a national finding.

MOSPI, Periodic Labour Force SurveyPress Information Bureau

• No official establishment list, payroll or ministry directory supports “an RSS pracharak in every institution”.
• Staffing of public institutions is published, where it is published, as sanctioned posts and incumbents — not as a political-cadre census of every institution.
• This is not a MOSPI or DoPT statistic.
