As pointed out previously that 2020 is too early to for India to become a superpower. Apart from the results of indexes like Human Development Indexes, Corruption Index, Ease of doing business etc. in which India is far behind, the discussions stated above by the youth of the country itself states that India is very far from the”superpower” tag.
We all Indians have a very bad memory, and our whole thought process quickly changes based on the few good things or any bad things happening in recent times (classic example being treatment of cricket players). Just because CEO of some big firms like Mckinsey and Bof have pointed India to be a credible place to invest money and good investments like that of Prince of Qatar coming to India doesnt mean we can become a superpower in coming six months. I feel we are having this discussions just because of the hype created by the BJP government. I dont deny that the government is taking the right steps to put the economy on a high growth trajectory but I feel it is too early in the day for us to talk about being “superpower”.
I am not denying the fact that we are having the potential to become a superpower if we reduce our mutual differences and work together for the betterment of the society as a whole. Moreover, I feel that just development could not solve our problems, “sustainable development” is the answer for the country.
