R&D and manufacturing are "THE" future for India

As long as we keep the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty family away from the leadership of India, then India and Indians will see enormous growth and development across multiple sectors for the next 50 years

And India must not loose its hunger to keep developing ....ever....even in the next 1000 years, India should work hard on development and fuel growth !

No matter what the pundits say India will grow stronger👍. It's MSMEs can propel it with human capital 👍. 🇮🇳 INDIA will become 3rd largest economy in after 10 yrs🇮🇳👍

The Ivory Tower Indian and Indian American academics and “experts” with deep ideological leanings have not spent even 6 months outside the Indian metros.

They see India in spreadsheets and panel discussions and often, they are least qualified to talk about India. This includes The great Amartya, Raghu Ram, Banerjee and the likes of them.

what India really needs is a very strong and stable govt..Modi govt with a simple majority could not pass one of the most imp agri reforms.. What Arvind and Raghuram Rajan cries about actually defies their own logic when China such an authoritarian non-inclusive govt grew up at more than 10%..democracy has tremendous benefits (and India is diverse, pluralistic, secular, democratic, progressive, liberal to its core; with such low per capita and huge diverse population, India is the only unique example that has always been a democracy when you compare it with countries having similar per capita and socio-economic status), however, when you have such a huge uneducated poor population, democracy becomes the biggest hurdle...

In its own way, India has stumbled upon a governance model for 1.50 billion people. This internally generated knowledge and model has got antennas raised in the Western world in particular. They have been left scratching their head on how did this happen. India picked up tools invented in the West and came up with a solution that no one imagined.

Look forward to more of such panel discussions

Manufacturing definitely needs to be boosted in India and services should be further encouraged both in and by private and and Government

Hindus mind is hungry for knowledge . His mind and soul is so pure he has no problem using knowledge .

Arvind economics is same as of Raghuram, seen his so called research paper debunked at so many level.

These people are *_woolly-headed intellectuals_* touting *_fluffy_* phrases, dreamily building *_castles in the sky_*
("unicorns" -- fluffy way to describe a PRE-PROFITABLE company, and PRE-PROFITABLE is a charitable way of saying UNPROFITABLE. Their market capitalization evaporates very quickly when economic times get tough)
Have any of these "eminent intellectuals" actually run a business themselves?

All decades were indias decades...but wasted by caste, regionalism, family parties, ruling elites of upper castes, nehrus socialism

Goldman sachs praised 🇮🇳 in a report in 2023 and said that in order to become the 3rd largest economy India needs to grow at above 5% till 2030s ND around 4-4.5% in 2040s.

India needs to create 8 million jobs every year & not 8 million jobs over the next decade.

Realistic parameters of a developed nation/cities/societies can be summed up as follows:
1. Quality of air we breath and the quality of our (daily) transport (roads, traffic and public transport alternatives)
2. Quality of our public healthcare facilities, civic services and accountability from our politicians and the other powers-that-be.
3. Quality & transparency of governance, with freedom of expression, with an unbiased mass-media.

I agree that India is still not very business friendly but slowly improving. Foreign investors think that Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Thailand are more business friendly than India.

Just 1 week after the upload this lady was fired and thanked for her services

[sdasgupta]

Why does all discussions make it about India vs the world? It is imperative that India grows for it’s own sake, to provide for 1.4b people.

How can India be an economic super power when they can not even provide clean water, hygiene and bath rooms for it's own people?
