Can India become the world’s third largest economy under Narendra Modi? | India Votes 2024

India’s economy is booming and appears to be on track to overtake Germany as the world’s third-largest economy. Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants India’s GDP to reach $US7 trillion before the end of this decade. But behind the numbers, are India’s working public and aspirants enjoying the benefits of India’s economic growth?

INDIA VOTES 2024, presented by the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) is a six-episode series that takes you on an insightful journey through the heart of Indian democracy. While the Indian Prime Minister #NarendraModi is seeking a third term, a brand new Coalition is on the bloc – the I.N.D.I.A (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance) featuring key opposition leaders such as Congress scion #RahulGandhi, TMC leader Mamata Banerjee, and AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal among many others.

INDIA VOTES 2024 goes beyond the headline and daily coverage to explain critical topics and issues facing Indian voters as they participate in the elections of the world’s largest democracy.

It’s so funny seeing ABC’s tone changing as the election is progressing. Before elections, it was anti-Modi every day, all day 😂😂

[gauthamgreat]

When has ABC ever said anything positive on India? Blatantly, India and hindu phobic. Your report on Ram mandir was nauseating.

Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them

I am a foreignor from america. I am definitely going to go to india. To create India foriegn company you just need 1 or two India partners. India look like good long term play. There is india today but what about India 10, 20, 30 years from now?

British wanted to destroy India. But God bless India for all times 🤗🇮🇳❤️

[stashintheback]

It's absolutely fantastic to see India grow at such a rapid speed. Amazingly, over 60% if due to internal demand & not exports. As India pushes more manufacturing & exports sky is the limit for Indian economy ❤

Why propoganda western media channel only approach biased leftists.
Bharat is growing rapidly, & it is creating a lot of jobs, but if some people only want to do govt. jobs which are in limited no. then they will be unemployed.

[gmwizz]

The naysayers and pessimists you can’t do anything about them! Go India !!!

[deepshikhasharma]

Economically and security wise we will be definitely better under Modi than the horrible coalition which will loose all momentum that we have gained so far..(rest of the issues I am not sure).. so we will need to take a call..Jobs definitely under strain but I am sure under the opposition coalition it wil worsen and not improve..

[govindn]

With Modi...its possible!
We have to....cmon India cmon Bharat❤🇮🇳

India has all the basic structures of a superpower country. But, one thing I can't understand is why India is not as clean and green as its developed counterparts. First, we should aim for making India the most clean country then we may aim for becoming an economic superpower. However, this task can only be achieved with the equal contribution of the people and the Gov. Of India.
