These are short write-ups based on presentations made at a Roundtable Discussion on Lianghui, or the Two Sessions, reflecting some of the key aspects of China’s plans and policies which are to be pursued in the subsequent years. Two of the papers concentrate primarily on social issues and the other two focus on economy and technology (artificial intelligence). Anand P. Krishnan focuses on the state support to private businesses and how it contrasts with that of India. Ritu Agarwal’s piece is an analysis of the Rural Rejuvenation programme of the Chinese regime. Rityusha Mani Tiwary explains and elaborates upon how the AI industry is being supported and promoted in China with state support. Usha Chandran, whose expertise is on gender issues, writes on how the state is reinforcing patriarchy and pursuing policies on women’s secondary role in society by proposing the so-called “Mom Jobs” to enable women to take up part-time and flexible jobs to concentrate on family responsibilities.
