India was doing well in early 2000’s to the latter part of the decade, but now can’t say much.
 
I would say hundreds of millions of people are affected by caste discrimination in India, their income, women and living standard are all limited from birth.
 
Editor,

For thousands of years, India has been the centre of human civilization – a hub for trade, religion, history, and culture. It has hosted the largest empire in history, Great Britain. India’s share of the world economy when Britain arrived on its shores was 23% and by the time they left it was down to below 4%. The British had plundered and looted $45 trillion of our resources. Ironically as of 2020, India’s footprint expands in the UK despite the COVID crisis, with a number of Indian companies operating in the UK; the total turnover of these companies added up to GBP 50.8 billion from GBP 41.2 billion. Britain’s dependence on India does not end there. Indians comprise about 1.4 million people in the UK, making up 6.6% of their population. The majority of the Indian population are blue-collared workers that the country depends on.
When Hillary Clinton visited India in 2009, the US Secretary Of State’s verdict was unequivocal: “I consider India not just a regional power, but a global superpower.” What led America’s strongest woman to say that? Well, because it’s actually true. In 2015, India became the world’s fastest-growing economy with a 5% estimated GDP rate. India with a GDP of almost $3 trillion, occupies the 13th spot on the list of countries with massive GDP, international and military alliance, political and economic influence, and leadership skills. India’s purchasing power parity (PPP) is expected to reach $43 trillion and will surpass the US by 2050. By 2040, India is expected to surpass the USA (in PPP terms) and become the second-largest economy. Alongside this Indian emergence, the international order is undergoing significant changes as well, with power increasingly diffused among states. These developments have the potential to put India as the world’s most influential democracy, in the second half of the 21st century
Since 1960, India’s population soared by 209% from 450 million to 1.39 billion people in 2021. Over the coming decades, population growth will continue. By 2027, India’s population is projected to surpass China, making it the most populous country in the world, and by 2050, its population is projected to reach 1.64 billion people. This growth will keep India young and its labour force large. While China, the USA, and Europe’s workforce decline, India’s will grow to provide a major economic advantage.
However, India’s economic growth is not guaranteed, our country’s infrastructure which is key to attracting investments and fuelling further development is largely inadequate. To improve India’s infrastructure to foster economic growth, it is pursuing mega large-scale projects such as the $30 billion, Mumbai-Delhi Industrial Corridor which will have rail lines, airports, highways, smart cities, power projects, etc. India hopes to develop several more corridors between major cities. These corridors along with other projects will form a golden quadrilateral of infrastructure
India is also pursuing a $75 billion national highways program called “Bharatmala” to upgrade and boost expressways. Along with this, it has also created “Sagarmala” a $116 billion program to build and upgrade mega ports and establish 14 Coastal Economic Zones. India is constructing new cities to attract investments such as Dholera in Gujarat, a GIFT city, and two brand new greenfield smart cities. India is also developing a $2.2 billion airport project in Mumbai
Despite all these optimistic trends and predictions, India still has some major problems to overcome. First of all, climate change presents a huge threat. India has the largest social cost of carbon in the world, emitting 1 ton of carbon monoxide into the atmosphere, India’s is $86 per ton. In India, climate change has caused heat waves and sea levels to rise causing devastation. Lastly, air pollution is causing serious health issues. In the 2021 report, 3 of India’s major cities were listed in the Top 10. Lastly in terms of social division, India is still fighting to remove the legacy of its age-old caste system. Many of the so-called low-class individuals lack education, proper healthcare, and economic opportunities.
Despite all these issues, India is developing quickly in the realm of economic, military, cultural, and political influences are expanding every day, setting it up for Global Superpower status

How was India a hub for trade for thousands of years?

Indus region, more accurate ancient Punjab was where civilization first arose in the sub-continent, and this region acted as land route from Central Asia and China to the middle east and east Africa, but thats geophaically in modern day Pakistan.

Dravidian states, plus Bengal region which is modern day Bangladesh, were the ones who did sea-borne trade with Middle east and South east Asia. The Buddha was a Magdhi which were ancestors of Bengali people. Bengali ancestors were the first to embrace Buddhism and the one who spread it westwards, to Sri Lanka and further to SEA.

If you leave out these three region, you really only legt with a interior that was not conductive to trade.


Neither British Empire or Mughal Empire were local of origin. If go back Enough then you have Mauryan dynasty with Asoka, who was a buddhist.

Liie many other countries modern Bharat has the potential to become a superpower. But forst it has to become a solid regional power. The brits were not a large nation, if you count population size, but regardless made the biggest empire in history. Same with arabs who were backwards and outnumbered in every battle but steamrolled everyone anyway.

You mean India is Super poor in reality.

India will never be a Strong power as long it has two enemies.
 
that's right its only 800 dollars above a failing Pakistani economy,View attachment 816525
View attachment 816522

India's real per capita GDP should be $1200. It is lower than Pakistan's per capita GDP.


The Indian govt has frequently revised the GDP algorithm, and their GDP data are full of falsehood. Therefore, we should estimate India's real GDP Based on the fiscal revenue of the Indian govt.
China's fiscal revenue in 2021 is $3.19 trillion, which is 10 times that of the Indian govt, so India GDP should have only $1.8 trillion. India's real per capita GDP should be $1200.


BTW: This is just an estimate. In fact, India's real per capita GDP should be lower than $1200. Because a large proportion of China's GDP comes from exports. Export commodities need tax rebates and there is no fiscal revenue. Therefore, the proportion of China's fiscal revenue and GDP will be significantly lower than the normal level. Using China's proportion as the standard to calculate India's GDP is already tolerant of India.
 
Personally I think the title of the thread is kind of stupid.

India is not as powerful as some Hindutva people think it is.
 
Is the 'super power' thing some battery that needs to be recharged every now and then with such threads?
 
Whenever I see such threads.....

That settles the matter. Now we can go back to embellishing our own emigration plans. What a relief!

India is a utter communal shithole, that is going to be torn apart because Indians hate each other
What amuses me the most is the bunch of undiminished intellectual powerhouses who constantly bring up the refrain that it is impossible to take India seriously NOW, and that it has crossed the point of no return.

How odd.

These are the same people, who, at every milestone in the Indian journey, have told us that things are worse than before. People who did nothing before making these dolorous complaints, other than to think of dolorous complaints to make at some other times.
