Sir, the economy is not a digital game, economic development is reflected in every aspect of society.
For example, the per capita GDP in Nigeria is higher than India, and the economic growth rate is one of the world's fastest growing countries.
Does this represent Nigeria better than India?
No, economy is not a digital game.
It's not that you have an economic growth rate of more than 10%, with foreign investment reaching more than $10000, and foreign exchange reserves are increasing every hour... You have enough confidence to say that you are in a steady progress. It can only prove that you are shifting from agricultural country to industrial country.
Can you understand the industrial structure?
India's slow development is not because of democracy, it is because India is an agricultural country!
India's rapid development is not due to a stable growth, but because of the manufacturing industry in India started!!
Low end manufacturing started, there will be a rapid development.
So, your democracy can be a stable development point of view, almost the overthrow of Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea's economic success of the case... But you still don't have any success...
So I think... You think this world is too simple. It's easy for you to think of the economic success.
Completly wrong states... :
Nigeria :
GDP $492.986 billion (nominal; 2016) $1,105.343 Billion (PPP; 2016)
GDP rank 21st (nominal) / 20th (PPP)
GDP growth 2.1% (2016)
GDP per capita $2,758 (nominal) $6,184 (PPP)
India :
GDP : 2.2 trillion USD / More than 10 trillion in PPP
GDP rank : 7th
GDP growth : 7.8%
GDP per capita : 1800$(Nominal 2015)
141th and 124th with per capita income of about $1,808 and $6,266 in nominal and ppp method, respectively.
When you compare PPP or nominal GDP u need to take population under consideration too.
Nigeria : The current population of Nigeria is 189,009,699 as of Thursday, December 8, 2016,
India : The current population of India is 1,333,614,398 as of Thursday, December 8, 2016
In which over 110 million is under poverty in nigeria in 2015. Over 226 million people under poverty in India in
2012 . 62%(2015) vs 21% (2012)...
On your comment on Shifting from Agricultural to Industry : True our 55% of agriculture based population only produce 15% to the national GDP.
You need to understand. India's agricultural revenue on the raise while recent FdI in India touched 300 billion dollars and counting.
Now We are following PPP routes to enhance small scale industries in each and ever small towns and village buy connecting them with nation hiways and creating agri based business hubs in rural areas. While decreasing / providing options to the farmers community and their children's with better stable income we are looking to provide better options for farmers to sell their crops at competitive price.
See from 1980-2016 China succeeded in decrease your poverty by 80%. It took 10% GDP growth (+/-) for 3-4 decades. Yet you have large population living under poverty line as per Ur Govt reports. India is a booming economy. We just opened up for FDI hardly few years. Defence, Agricultural based modern industry, space industries, telecommunications, heavy metallurgy, pharmaceutical, aerospace to name a few are about to see massive jump in their growth.
If India keeps its space as it is today atleast if maintains its economy between 6.5%-8% for the next decade. Surely we will develop faster than China compared with same time frame. With diverse social development unlike china's industrial export economy. India can be both Export and Service economy
