POLICY, NOT PERSONALITY
India issue spectrum
Each number describes a policy position, not how good a politician is. Higher means more of the policy named on that scale. Scores are editorial interpretations, not scientific measurements. Israel and Palestine are independent axes.

Public employment-programme funding
We have not established enough attributable evidence for a placement. No midpoint or party-based score is substituted.
Editorial policy rubric, not a public-priority ranking. A higher number means more of the named policy dimension, not a better policy. Relative funding, tax and admissions changes require an explicitly dated baseline and comparison period in the placement evidence. Funding comparisons use inflation-adjusted per-person amounts. Proposals, enacted policy and outcomes must be distinguished; missing evidence stays unrated.
