40 things PM Narendra Modi has promised to achieve by 2022

Just a heads up, tomorrow the Indian are gonna release a plan to try to achieve a $40 Trillion economy by 2047; which would require a steady 11% annual growth for the next 25 years; or basically an economy 14 times large then the current one.

China is the only country (in recent memory) that achieved (an surpassed that growth) at 18 times where they were 25 years ago, when all the world was ready to send their capital and they were absorbing technology by any means necessary.

There doesn’t look like there is any appetite in the developed world to create another economic/technological rival, bit for a Pakistan a threat to keep an eye on. IMHO, Pakistan should try to achieve and maintain at least parity in GDP per capita.

would have been a better article with actual achievements against targets.
Eg in one easily verifiable case like foreign tourists, the numbers increased to 11.9 m in 2019 , before the bat virus struck.
Our journalists are worse in information decimation than many ordinary contributors here.
Not possible to discuss here but its common knowledge that this government has torn through the red tape in many areas and people who used to profit from the old system , are unhappy.
A lot of his gains have come from technology implementation in India. With online and cashless transactions, the Government has reduced chances of corruption.
Ofcourse this transformation started before his government, but he has kicked into a higher gear.

  1. I would rather not go into facile explanations why this, that or the other did not happen. What happened, happened; what did not, did not, so why keep harping on it and claiming that x, y or z might have come true, IF.....?
  2. Journalists are not the only ones who have been responsible for information degeneration. The government's own statisticians have expressed concern. Earlier, Chinese statistics were a laughing stock. We have now successfully caught up with China at least with regard to opacity of data.
  3. This 'tearing through red tape' is accurate in some limited respects; for instance, getting a passport is today very straightforward and convenient, keeping the Aadhaar card up todate, or even getting it issued in the first instance, has become a very straightforward matter, too. All these of course if one belongs to that section of Indian society that is well-documented and can produce the requirements, minimal though they are, at will. These improvements have nothing to do with the daily wage earner. My kaamwali, my garbage collector, my ironing man, all insist on cash only. They cannot help it, they are still dependent on cash.
  4. The online payment structures through UPI and cashless society are tremendous, as far as people like us are concerned. Returning to #3, it doesn't do much for the really poor, who outnumber everybody else by very large numbers.
  5. The hallmark of this government to my mind used to be their religious intolerance and their vindictive attitude, towards the wrong religious belief (wrong to them), and also that same intolerance and their vindictive attitude towards political opponents. As we go along, it is more and more its complete and absolute indifference to the plight of the poor that is striking. NEVER has any government before this been so callous about the poor. The lower limit of their concern is the shopkeeper. Anything, anybody below this is road-kill.

1. In 2019 11.9 m foreign visitors, in 2020 2.74 m. As per you the virus had no effect on tourism ? ok.
2. Disagree . You are just trying to fit in too hard. Indian statistics are mostly accurate. Industrial production is directly linked to power consumption. The west started tracking this criteria once they doubted china's always perfect match between projected growth figures and year end actually achieved. India has shown a steady increase in power consumption, which is proportional to the figures. Don't be guided by propaganda from either side.
3. I have 2 maids and a driver at home. All get their salaries directly in their bank accounts. Though your point about daily payments to is valid. But how these small payments to dhobi are contributing to corruption is not obvious ? You want them taxed ?
When I can directly pay my telephone, electricity, water Bill's sitting at home ,no need to hire a agent to save on standing in line. And the improvement in passport services as you have written are well known.
4. same.
5. Very broad statement. Best if you expand this with examples.
Our issue is of extreme positions. We start behaving like politicians, who have their single minded agenda.

Where I critique this government is that it has ok intentions but is proving to be novices in implementation.
Demonetization- over ambitious , poor implementation
Farmers laws - badly introduced
Cleanliness drive , patchy performance.

just concentrating on the economics side, which ofcourse is of no consolation for the minorities

I thought that was your statement.

The difference is that you say,"...are mostly accurate..." and I say, "...were mostly accurate..."

Second, where is this power being consumed? Considering the existing major deficits in domestic and agricultural power supply earlier, is the increase going to industry at all?
3. I have 2 maids and a driver at home. All get their salaries directly in their bank accounts. Though your point about daily payments to is valid. But how these small payments to dhobi are contributing to corruption is not obvious ? You want them taxed ?
They are fortunate, and you have obviously supported their effort to get onto the the cashless, online bandwagon. Also they appear to be full-time. None of the three examples I quoted are. My kaamwalli works for a dozen households, and gives me half an hour a day, to wash clothes - that works out to every other day, I cannot generate more clothes than that. The garbage collector collects for 195 flats, and has refused all help in setting up a collection programme into his bank account (the kaamwalli was offered the same help, and plainly refused, saying that she liked to keep folding cash with her, on her person). Exactly the same for the ironing man.

What should I do, refuse to pay them cash? Then they will just ignore me and leave me to find help in these three areas.

I acknowledged this right at the outset. However, the number of people who depend on daily earnings, and are still dependent on cash is still substantial. My paying my telephone, electricity, broadband, rent and building maintenance sitting at home simply doesn't make any difference to the huge numbers who are still on daily earnings.

5. Very broad statement. Best if you expand this with examples.
Soon, soon.

That was my essential point, that from hatred, they have gone on to expand their portfolio, to include bungling. This may be described as progress; some may disagree.

I think you misunderstood.
Cash economy is not necessarily all bad. Japan is nearly all cash economy in everyday small transactions. they prefer cash.
The major cash corruption is in land deals, business deals, where black money is generated. 30 to 40 % used to be under invoiced to save on stamp duty and dispose of ill gotten black money.
The maid getting cash is not corruption.

I can agree with this wholeheartedly, with no reservations whatsoever.

Yes, I remember the days of massive cash components in transactions (none, sadly, involving me!) and the difficulty of understanding the true dimensions of a deal. It is not something to wish to return to.

40 things PM Narendra Modi has promised to achieve by 2022

Text Size:
Narendra Modi sold us a dream in 2014 called “Achhe din” – the good days that were about to come.
As soon as he won in 2014, he forgot all about “Achhe din”. In 2017, he gave us a new dream: “New India 2022”, making us forget the “Achhe din” deadline of 2019. Bringing back Indian money from abroad? Hah!
Now that he has won in 2019, he is making us forget “New India 2022” and instead, making us think of “Five Trillion 2024”.
By 2022, it is likely he will give us a new slogan that extends the deadline to 2026, or so.
A few days ago, Union Minister for Information & Broadcasting, Prakash Javadekar, presented a 50-day report card of the new Modi government. We have heard of governments marking their first 100 days, but 50 days is a first. Very soon the government may start presenting weekly report cards since they love creating occasions out of thin air, and every occasion is an opportunity for publicity and propaganda.
Javadekar said that the government has, in its first 50 days, created a “roadmap” for making India a $5 trillion economy by 2024.

Given the unimaginative Budget, the only achievement of the Modi government’s first 50 days in power has been to come up with a new dream, a new slogan: Five Trillion Economy By Twenty Twenty Four.
Curiously, we now hear very little of New India 2022. There’s only one reference that Javadekar made to 2022 in his 50-day report card, and this was to the Indian Space Research Organisation’s Gaganyaan project that seeks to land an Indian astronaut on the moon.
The government is likely to harp so much on 2024 that they will make us forget it promised to bring the moon down to Indian soil by that year – $5 trillion by 2024, $5 trillion by 2024, $5 trillion by 2024…
Already, Modi has managed to make us all debate whether or not India can be a $5 trillion economy by 2024, deflecting us from asking more urgent questions like, when will the economic slowdown end? Anyone who asks questions about the current mismanagement of the economy and refuses to dream about Five Trillion Dollars is, according to the prime minister, a “professional pessimist”.
Let us be professional optimists, and hope that we will have a New India by 2022, as promised. For the record, here’s a list of things the Modi government promised to do by 15 August 2022, the 75th anniversary of India’s independence.

Also read: Modi govt 2.0 takes a shot at ‘minimum government, maximum governance’ 2.0

These promises have been culled out from many sources, but largely from the NITI Aayog’s document, “Strategy for New India @ 75”. The list is far from comprehensive, taking mostly those goals for which numerical targets have been given.

  1. India’s GDP growth rate will be 9-10 per centby 2022.​
2. The investment rate will increase from 29 per cent in 2017-18 to 36 per cent in 2022-23.
3. Every Indian will have a bank account, life insurance, accident insurance, pension and ‘retirement planning services’ by 2022.
4. Farmers’ incomes will be doubled by 2022. Doubled from what base, which year, has cleverly never been specified. And incomes will anyway increase with inflation. Income is not profit.
5. “Provide irrigation to all farms (Har Khet Ko Pani) with improved on-farm water-use efficiency (more crop per drop).”
6. There will be no crop residue burning to reduce air pollution.
7. PM 2.5 levels will come down below 50 by 2022.
8. Every household will have an LPG cylinder.
9. By 2022, Indian Railways’ safety standards will be such that nobody will ever die (“zero fatalities”) in a train accident.
10. The Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train will be completed by 2022, but railway minister Piyush Goyal now says this was never the deadline. It’s December 2023.

11. The growth rate of the manufacturing sector will double by 2022, from the base of 7.7 per cent between 2012-13 to 2017-18.
12. Every Indian will have a house by 2022.
13. Every Indian will have a toilet by 2022.
14. Every Indian will have 24/7 electricity supply by 2022.
15. Every gram panchayat (not every house) will have broadband internet reaching it by 2022. This was supposed to have been done by 2018.
16. The government will ensure “hundred per cent digital literacy” by 2022. In other words, every Indian will know how to use the internet.
17. Every Indian will have a water connection by 2022. This deadline has already been extended to 2024 without pretending it was ever promised to be delivered by 2022.
18. India will be free of malnutrition by 2022.
19. Seven hundred district HQ hospitals will be turned into “medical centres” (whatever that means) through public-private partnership.
20. Private industry will be made to adopt primary healthcare centres (PHCs) to train healthcare professionals, upgrade technology and improve patient outcomes.
21. Twenty“Medical Free Zones (MFZs)” will be created to attract medical tourism (“telemedicine, e-consult, telepathology, teleradiology etc”).
22. Hundred-plus new tourist destinations will be created in under-developed areas.
23. “Increase India’s share in global international tourist arrivals from 1.18 per cent to 3 per cent. Increase the number of foreign tourist arrivals from 8.8 million to 12 million. Double the number of domestic tourist visits, from 1,614 million in 2016 to 3,200 million visits,” the NITI Aayog document on New India 2022 said.
24. “Set up 10 innovation districts where entrepreneurs and designers live, work and play” and “connect artisans to market places using digital platforms.”
25. Manual scavenging will be eradicated.
26. Imparting of skills as philanthropy will be promoted, and “skilling as a compulsory exercise from class 6th – skill schools for senior secondary and higher secondary” will be started.
27. “Proportion of formally skilled labour from the current 5.4 per cent of India’s workforce” will be increased to“at least 15 per cent”.
28. Two-three million jobs in the healthcare sector, and 40 million jobs through tourism and 5 million new jobs through mines and minerals will be created.
29. All single-use plastic will be banned by 2022.

30. India will have 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022. The current capacity is 80GW.
31. “Reduce imports of oil and gas by 10 per cent by 2022-23.”
32. “Accelerate the growth of the mining sector from 3 per cent in 2017-18 to 14 per cent, with an average growth of 8.5 per cent during 2018-23,” the NITI Aayog document said.
33. “Double the length of national highways (NHs) to 2 lakh km by 2022-23 from the existing 1.22 lakh km.”
34. All delayed infrastructure projects as of 2017, some of which have been in the works for decades, will be completed by 2022.
35. The female labour force participation rate will be 30 per cent by 2022.
36. India’s forest cover will increase to 33 per cent from the current 21 per cent. This one should be easy since India has already been showing an increase in forest cover despite increasing urbanization, simply by changing the definition of forest cover.
37. No student in any school in India will drop-out before completing class 10. No student will be out of school.
38. “Achieve a doctor-population ratio of at least 1:1400 (WHO norm 1:1000) and nurse-population ratio of at least 1:500 (WHO norm 1:400) by 2022-23.” Currently, there is only one allopathic doctor for every 11,082 Indians.
39. “Increase the gross enrolment ratio (GER) in higher education from 25 per cent in 2016-17 to 35 per cent by 2022-23.”
40. “Achieve the Bharatmala Phase-I target by completing 24,800 km by 2021-22, including 2,000 km of coastal and port connectivity roads.”
