‘What's Your Price, Mr Shivaswamy?' tries to gauge the true cost of wanting to own a home

For many Indians, owning a home is their biggest dream. Not the house that has been passed down to them from their parents, but the one that they have bought with their own money. This is an expensive dream, and not meant to be realised early in life. Owning a house is like doing penance – there must be sweat and blood and decades of hardship, and the fruit it will bear will have been sweetened with perseverance and sacrifice. Every hardworking, decent Indian knows this. And so do the corrupt, scheming builders who squeeze dry the good people of their very last penny. In the end, the dream doesn't come true, but life becomes a living nightmare. Desperate times Retired government employee Mr Shivaswamy is going through a similar hell in MR Dattathri's novel, What's Your Price, Mr Shivaswamy?. Translated from the Kannada by the author, it tells the story of an elderly man's desperate attempts to arrange an additional eight lakh rupees that the builders of his new flat have demanded from him if he wants to move in without further delay. Unwilling to ask his children for help and too proud to borrow, Shivaswamy decides to join the workforce. After decades of service in the public sector in Ghaziabad, he is not prepared for the cut-throat corporate culture of Bangalore. However, this is not the time to make excuses – desperate times call for desperate measures. Once Shivaswamy joins the DT Group as a senior HR staff, he realises that his appointment has not been a unanimous decision, and certainly not a happy one. The drifts in the Thakkar family – the owners of the DT Group – have created camps within the company with each vying for power and influence. The MD, Dhaval Thakkar's, daughter-in-law rules with an iron fist without being on the official roll of employees. The strange dynamics at the office confuses Shivaswamy, who, for the most part, has never been a serious player in office politics. He's the senior-most employee by age at the DT Group and the elderly MD takes a shine to him – soon seeing him as a friend and confidant, and later, a brother in faith. Where are the desperate measures? The problem with What's Your Price, Mr Shivaswamy? is that at no point is Shivaswamy asked his price. As a thorough family man, he minds his business both at home and at work. When the tensions at the office become apparent, he skirts his way around every person of authority and manages to keep himself from harm's way. Perhaps it is his compliant nature or his empathetic ear, Shivaswamy finds himself being pulled in every direction. Yet, he is never in a truly sticky situation, nor is he at any point given an ultimatum. The only price that he perhaps pays for getting involved in the company's mess is an occasional headache or a fever. For all its faults, the company doesn't force him to compromise on his ideals or take sides when he doesn't want to. Financing a house is a tricky, expensive affair. The years of financial strain can break families and certainly sour marriages. The urgency to earn money, and earn it quickly, can disturb the peace of the Zenest of minds. Added to this is the brute roguishness of builders; and in India, they often function like low-level gangsters. Threatening, striking under-the-table deals, and physical violence are essential in this nexus. What's Your Price, Mr Shivaswamy? fails glaringly by not taking this into account. Besides the stress of his corporate job, we don't really learn of the mental toll that our protagonist is under. This in turn, doesn't let the readers realise the full extent of his helplessness, even though by himself, Shivaswamy is a generally likeable character. His wife, Revathi, leaves for the US to look after their pregnant daughter. By putting Revathi on the plane at the outset of the story, the author does not let her have a full presence in Shivaswamy's story. And the novel loses out on what could have been its strongest theme: how desperation and fear affect happy marriages. By alienating Shivaswamy from his family, we never truly understand the psychological and emotional wreckage of clinging to a lost dream. At some point, the novel forgets what it is about. The reader is sucked into the vortex of family–corporate drama which feels tedious in every aspect – after all, this is the story of every family business, disintegration is the only natural end. But, the reader sees so much of the internal crisis of the Thakkar family that they have to stop to wonder who the story is really about. A more suitable description of the novel would perhaps be a second coming of a retired man in the workplace, or a corporate drama with a sweet subplot of making a friend in one's twilight years.

ISRO to transfer SSLV tech to HAL in ₹511 crore deal

In a landmark move towards boosting India's private space capabilities, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) has secured a ₹511 crore deal to take over the manufacturing and marketing of Small Satellite Launch Vehicles (SSLVs) from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), according to our sources. Over the next two years, ISRO will transfer the SSLV technology to HAL, which will be responsible for producing two SSLVs end-to-end, mirroring the methodology used in ISRO's developmental launches. The SSLV, capable of delivering up to 500 kg payloads to low-Earth orbit, is known for its rapid assembly, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for deploying mini and nano satellites. This move aims to reduce India's dependence on foreign players in the small satellite launch segment and increase its share in the growing global market. HAL will be allowed to independently manufacture and launch SSLVs starting August 2027, with autonomy to redesign components and select suppliers, although 51% ownership must remain with an Indian entity as per government norms. HAL beat out Adani-backed Alpha Design Technologies and Bharat Dynamics Ltd to win the contract, which was awarded after a two-phase evaluation process headed by former Principal Scientific Adviser K. VijayRaghavan. Unlike the PSLV procurement model, this initiative shifts the onus of production, launch, and marketing entirely to the private player. 'This is different from the PSLV model, where we were the buyers,' said Radhakrishnan Durairaj, CMD of NewSpace India Limited (NSIL). 'Now, HAL will look for its own market. There's significant global demand as satellites are increasingly miniaturised.' NSIL has already scheduled 15 SSLV launches to strengthen India's foothold in the space sector, with the first one planned for late 2026. Ahead of that, two SSLV missions carrying private Indian payloads are slated for launch in October 2025 and February 2026. 'We want India to become the global hub for small satellite launches,' said Pawan Goenka, Chairman of IN-SPACe, India's nodal agency for space sector promotion and regulation. This deal marks a turning point in India's space commercialisation roadmap and paves the way for HAL to become a key player in the international small satellite market.

Kenya's ex-PM disappointed Adani deal for JKI airport expansion failed

Kenya's former prime minister Raila Odinga has said that he was disappointed when the Adani deal to expand and manage the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) collapsed, according to a media report on Friday. Odinga, while speaking on the second day of the National Executive Retreat in Karen in Nairobi, also said that the deal was politicised, resulting in its cancellation, The Star newspaper reported. "I was very disappointed when we were not able to move on with the airport contract that was very unfortunate, he was quoted as saying by the newspaper. The leader of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) said should the deal have proceeded, it would have elevated Nairobi into a regional economic hub. He said that the first expansion contract for JKIA was awarded during his tenure as the Prime Minister but was later on cancelled after the grand coalition government left office. We had awarded the Greenfield airport contract before we left government with Mwai Kibaki in 2012. That contract was cancelled, then it was given to the same contractor but then again cancelled because of disagreements. When we got to Adani, they (the political rivals) brought politics and the contract was cancelled," he said. If that is not done, Nairobi will just become dormant. Look at Addis Ababa, they are going and now putting up a new big airport and it's going to be the hub around, he added. Under the proposed airport deal worth nearly $2 billion, the conglomerate was to add a second runway at JKIA and upgrade the passenger terminal. It was also to operate it on a 30-year lease.
