As the world is moving rapidly towards automation, in India many things are still done manually. A recent video shared by Erik Solheim, a former Norwegian diplomat, shows how many Indians complete their tasks with almost robotic precision and coordination.<\/p>\n
In a 53-second video shared by Solheim, a group of men can be seen rapidly cutting and stacking cabbages. The undated video, which appears to have been shot at a wholesale vegetable market, shows the men filling a whole sack of cabbages in less than a minute.<\/p>\n
While sharing the video, Solheim wrote, This is why India doesnt need robotic automation.. So far, more than six lakh people have viewed the video.<\/p>\n
Commenting on Solheims tweet, many people argued that introducing automation in a country like India, where there is no dearth of workers, will only result in unemployment.<\/p>\n
Making this point, a Twitter user wrote, In a country where the human capital is high, the biggest challenge is to get them engaged so as to earn & live, otherwise they would take Robbery, Drugs etc. In such a country automation needs to be moderated. Macro Economics is important.<\/p>\n
Another person remarked, Automation needs to be done where there is a need. Like high risk jobs, jobs which need a lot of accuracy etc. There is no point in automating everything. If everything is done by a machine, it means less jobs for people > no income > no purchasing power. No sales.<\/p>\n
