What's new

With $320bn Gujarat leads in investments.

Maharashtra did its part for the nation but now its under congress rule.

Now Gujarat,Bihar and TN will shine. All are free from the chor party.

I hate the fact that the 'gullible' congress are seen as protector of muslims. Infact they are responsible for the rampant backwardness among muslim community.

Maharashtra has been consistently growing faster than Gujarat. It's just that congress is not as good at propaganda as bjp. You have to look through the photo op sessions of modi to see where Gujarat really stands. For all the talk, Gujarat still has a pretty poor ranking in social indicators. I am afraid the same might happen to the nation as a whole if modi becomes the PM. A shining India campaign while the poor are dying of hunger:tdown:

How many farmers committed suicide in bidarbha region ? How many farmers committed suicide in gujrat ? U dont compare the riches of states. A difference of 18-20 wouldn't hurt anyone. It is only when u compare the poors in both states, the picture gets clear.
 
Btw to put this figure into prospective, the value is 1.5 times the size of whole of Pakistan GDP.
 
Who the fu*k are you trying to fool?

Gujarat's GDP per capita is twice the national average?
Do you ever hear of people dying of cold or heat in gujarat?
Are they ever hospital strikes in gujarat?

Modi has made Gujarat the growth engine of the indian economy.

Unlike the Maino family which keeps making its swiss accounts fatter.

The Hindu : News / National : High income, yet high hunger levels in Gujarat

The hunger levels in Gujarat are higher than in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal, and surprisingly even higher than in Uttar Pradesh, according to the study, which is based on statistics compiled from a variety of sources: 61st round of the National Sample Survey; the Human Development Survey of the NCAER, deprivation data presented by the Sachar committee and the annual reports of the Reserve Bank of India.

However, Kerala and Tamil Nadu are far ahead of Gujarat in Human Development Index. Kerala tops the list followed by Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Haryana and Gujarat. Orissa which reveals high levels of poverty performs better on the HDI. Punjab, Kerala and Haryana are again very progressive measured by levels of hunger. These three are the least hungry states.

I was talking about Rs.92,327 Per-Capita income and Super duper malls are there because people have the money to go there and buy something.

Gujarat economy grows twice as fast as India’s - India - DNA


Gujarat economy grows twice as fast as India’s

It's official now. There is no economic slowdown in Gujarat. According to a government report, in 2009-10 the state registered 12.99% Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) growth, which is more than the target of 11.2% set by the Planning Commission under the 11th Five-Year Plan (2007-12).




It's official now. There is no economic slowdown in Gujarat. According to a government report, in 2009-10 the state registered 12.99% Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) growth, which is more than the target of 11.2% set by the Planning Commission under the 11th Five-Year Plan (2007-12).

In fact, as Union finance minister announced in the budget on Friday, India’s likely GDP growth in 2009-10 is 7.2%. As for Gujarat, encouraged by its GSDP, the state now plans to achieve 14% and 15% growth in 2010-11 and 2011-12 respectively.

"The state has a target to achieve 11.2% growth during the 11th Five-Year Plan, as against 9% set for the nation. The state's economy at current prices has recorded an annualised growth rate of 15.04 % for the past six years (2004-05 to 2009-10), one of the highest in the country.

GSDP at current prices in 2009-10 is estimated at Rs3,81,028 crore as against Rs3,37,217 crore in 2008-09, showing an increase of 13 per cent," the state government's statement under the Gujarat Fiscal Responsibility Act (GFRA), 2005, for 2009-10 says.

"It can be observed that while there was a slight decline in GSDP growth during 2008-09, in keeping with the recessionary pressure felt by the Indian economy due to global financial crisis, the state's economy has been quick to rebound in 2009-10 and continues to maintain its high growth trajectory."

The statement further noted that in 2008-09, the shares of primary, secondary and tertiary sectors in the total GSDP growth were 17.76%, 41.05% and 41.19% respectively. The shares of these sectors in the base year 1999-2000 were 18.62%, 39.21% and 42.17% respectively. "This is indicative of a balanced growth of the economy."

"With the resumption of growth process, it is expected that in the next two years of the current Five-Year Plan, the state would accelerate its growth rate to 14% and 15% respectively," the report says.

US report: Gujarat best example of governance, development


Agencies

Identifying Gujarat as perhaps the best example of effective governance and impressive development in India, a Congressional report showered praise on Chief Minister Narendra Modi and said the state under him has become a key driver of national economic growth.
Gujarat, is followed by Bihar and its Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, for his governance and administrative skills, the latest report of the Congressional Research Service (CRS) on India said.

“Perhaps India's best example of effective governance and impressive development is found in Gujarat, where controversial Chief Minister Narendra Modi has streamlined economic processes, removing red tape and curtailing corruption in ways that have made the state a key driver of national economic growth,” said the CRS report.

An independent and bipartisan wing of the US Congress, the CRS, prepares periodic reports on issues of interest to US lawmakers.

The 94-page report was released by the CRS for US lawmakers on September 1, a copy of which was made public by the Federation of American Scientists.

“Seeking to overcome the taint of his alleged complicity in 2002 riots, Modi has overseen heavy investment in modern roads and power infrastructure, and annual growth of more than 11 per cent in recent years,” the CRS said.

Gujarat, the CRS said, has attracted major international investors such as General Motors and Mitsubishi and with only five per cent of the country's population, the state now accounts for more than one-fifth of India's exports, it said.

The CRS mentions Bihar after Gujarat in good governance.

“Another positive example in 2011 has been Bihar, one of India's poorest states, where Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has won national attention through his considerable success in emphasising good governance over caste-based politics.

“He is credited with restoring law and order across much of the state, as well as overseeing infrastructure and educational improvements of direct benefit to common citizens projects,” the report said.

“Kumar's Janata Dal (United) party, in alliance with the main national opposition BJP, won an overwhelming reelection majority in November 2010 state elections,” the report said.

The examples set in by Chief Ministers Modi and Kumar may have inspired the popular leader of India's most populous state Uttar Pradesh.

“Chief Minister Mayawati, who is widely believed to maintain national political ambitions and was at the forefront of a nascent 'Third Front' in 2009, has shifted her own focus much more toward infrastructure projects such as road-building and improving the state's poor energy grid,” the report said.

The CRS also refers to the ongoing Telangana movement in Andhra Pradesh, and the new Trinamool-Congress rule in West Bengal.

Something a congress ruled state can never be

Gujarat's economy
India's Guangdong
A north-western state offers a glimpse of a possible industrial future for India

SO MANY things work properly in Gujarat that it hardly feels like India. In a factory packed with kit from Germany and China, slabs of rubber and bags of carbon black are turned into tyres. After being X-rayed for imperfections, they will be distributed across India or sent for export within three days. Sandeep Bhatia, a manager for CEAT, the firm that owns the project, says it took only 24 months to complete, including the normally fraught process of buying land. There is constant electricity, gas and abundant water. The state government, he says, kept red tape to a minimum, did not ask for bribes, and does not interfere much now.

The tyre plant is not the only sign of prosperity in Gujarat. A nearby village may have fodder strewn all over its alleys and mice scuttling across shampoo sachets in the local store, but it also has satellite dishes poking up from the roofs and power metres on the wall of every house. Most of the men, the villagers say, work for small industrial firms for a wage about 50% higher than they would get in the fields. The road to Ahmedabad, Gujarat's main city, is privately operated and boasts four lanes. It passes through a countryside that is visibly industrialising.

With a long coastline and too little rain for decent farming, Gujarat has always been famous for its traders. When it was hived off from Bombay to form a separate state in 1960, "the question was how Gujarat would survive," says Narendra With a long coastline and too little rain for decent farming, Gujarat has always been famous for its traders. When it was hived off from Bombay to form a separate state in 1960, "the question was how Gujarat would survive," says Narendra Modi, who has been chief minister since 2001. These days ar 5% of India's population but 16% of its industrial output and 22% of its exports. Its growth has outpaced India's (see chart) and it wins accolades from business people. A recent comparison of Indian states by McKinsey, a consultancy, waxed lyrical about Gujarat. It might yet play the role of industrial locomotive for the country, as Guangdong province did for China in the 1990s. There is lots of excited talk about exporters switching from China to India. Sanjay Lalbhai, the chairman of Arvind, a textiles maker and clothing retailer based in Ahmedabad, says such a move is "imminent" in his industry.

Chinese-style, big-ticket projects are part of Gujarat's formula, including refineries and ports, but so are networks of smaller firms and foreign companies which have now achieved critical mass in industries such as cars and pharmaceuticals. The state government uses the usual tricks to try to jump-start growth, including special economic zones. But more important, it has provided the bog-standard things that businesses pray for across India but often do not get—less onerous labour laws, passable roads, reliable electricity and effective bureaucracy.

Against the charge that some people have been left behind, Gujarat can point to reasonable growth in agriculture, helped by irrigation schemes. But the state has a black spot, which dates back to 2002 and an outbreak of sectarian violence. As many as 2,000 people (the official toll is lower) were killed in a month of riots, most of them Muslims. Some say Mr Modi and the state government were complicit in the violence or could at least have done more to stop it.

Might prosperity help heal the wounds? In Juhapura, a district on the outskirts of Ahmedabad dominated by the Muslim minority, a young mason grows angry when asked if he feels lucky to make 250-300 rupees a day ($6-7), saying he only gets work for 15 days a month. Others are more content. A bearded man down the road says his party-decoration business is booming. Behind the till of a shop selling top-ups for mobile phones and stationery for the nearby school, a man in a skull cap says life has undoubtedly improved, although his 82-year-old father, sitting in a deckchair, complains that everything went to the dogs when the British left.

Gujarat could be a vision of India's future, in which manufacturing flourishes, soaking up rural labour. Its economy is expected to grow by double digits, even as India's rate slows to 7-8% this year. The state may also be a springboard for Mr Modi, who may contest the national leadership of the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party, perhaps after state elections due in 2012. Mr Modi is enigmatic on this subject. He has yet to shed his polarising image, but he has at least built up an enviable record on the economy.

Vibrant Gujarat 2011: State may get 1/3rd of India's GDP in two days

AHMEDABAD: Over the next two days, India will see its industry pledge investments in one state that may add up to $450 billion, or one-third of the country's GDP. Top names from Corporate India will announce projects they plan to start in Gujarat at the two-day Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit beginning Wednesday.

When the CEOs rise, one after the other, to commit investments at the fifth edition of the summit, a few hundred crores will look like small change and only those in multiples of thousands of crores will generate an applause.

"Seldom have incoming dollars been so shocking," remarked a B-school faculty when Indian companies committed 12.44 lakh crore in January 2009, the peak of global recession. The economics professor with Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad was not surprised at doubts over the actual number of projects getting off the ground, but said, "Even if 10% of these investments materialise, it is still a big number".

Since the first summit in 2003, the state has bagged investments worth $370 billion. Critics have been dismissive of these figures and term the agreements or memoranda of understanding a hype created by one man who aspires for the nation's top post.

100% rise in investments expected

Chief Minister Narendra Modi came up with the idea of an investment summit to divert attention from the 2002 communal carnage that claimed 2,000 lives in Gujarat. The first summit attracted proposals worth Rs 66,068 crore. The figures kept multiplying since then: Rs 1 lakh crore in 2005, Rs 4.6 lakh crore in 2007 and Rs 12.44 lakh crore in 2009. This time, there may be a 100% rise and the host, the chief minister, has once again tried to take the focus away — this time from investments to knowledge-sharing.

"We want to highlight investment opportunities in the country as a whole, not just Gujarat. If you don't want to invest in Gujarat, you can think of Orissa, or may be Karnataka, but stay in India," says Modi, who was described as prime minister material by industrialists such as Bharti Group Chairman Sunil Mittal and ADAG Chairman Anil Ambani.

The public statements coming from the industry captains further endeared Modi to businesses who agree with the state's USPs such as investment climate, proactive government machinery, good roads, uninterrupted power supply and a 1,600-km coastline, the longest in the country.

The Vibrant Gujarat model, now being replicated by states such as Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh, thus helped in Modi's image makeover — from a Hindutva hardliner to a state CEO. This year, the industry chieftains will return — the Ambani brothers, Tata Group Chairman Ratan Rata, Godrej Group Chairman Adi Godrej, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd Vice-Chairman & Managing Director Anand Mahindra, Larsen & Toubro Chairman & Managing Director AM Naik, Aditya Birla Group Chairman Kumar Mangalam Birla, ICICI Bank Managing Director & CEO Chanda Kochhar, Britannia Industries Managing Director Vinita Bali, former ICICI Bank MD & CEO KV Kamath, and Bharti Group Chairman Sunil Mittal. Adding glam quotient would be Bollywood actors Preity Zinta, Anupam Kher, Paresh Rawal and Manoj Joshi.

The big-ticket investments during the current summit would be by Reliance Industries , Adani Group and Essar.

It was the same platform from where Ratan Tata famously said, "You are stupid if you are not in Gujarat" , and subsequently, in 2008, relocated the Nano project to Sanand near Ahmedabad from trouble-torn Singur in West Bengal.

The Rs 2,000-crore project has acted more as an image booster for the state among business houses than bringing any real economic gains. If Tata's gesture was not enough, Modi quickly roped in Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan as the state's brand ambassador to hardsell Gir lions and Kutch's salt desert.
