Will india get developed????

Question

with these wrong politicians and hierarchy system will my country get developed

Answer 1

I am a German business guy who is living in India for a few years now, let me give you my 2 rupees on this question:

India will certainly develop further, but looking at its political culture as it is today India will always lag way behind other nations. Still in 20 or 30 years from now we may call India a developing nation, it is just so sad to see just how badly this country is managed both on a central and the state level.

Government structures are absurdly inflated and deadlocked, the level of bureaucracy is simply insane and politicians are incompetent and/or corrupt. Worst of all: everybody considers this normal, like: the Indian way, and I see no momentum whatsoever from any side that this would ever change. It is a self-sustaining system which is immune to any change towards the better.

I feel really sad about this. I like India and the people here, and India could do so much better. But it would take someone to just blown up and remove the entire apparatus over night and competently lay out new government and administrative structures from scratch. Too bad we all know this ain't gonna happen.

One more essential thing is missing in India - solidarity. India is deeply divided into religious communities, castes, the rich - the poor, the north - the south, my family - your family and so on. People always build fences all around them, they separate themselves from other groups. No one really cares about the welfare of the other groups, every group solely seeks its own advantage - there is just very little solidarity where people across the entire nation would stand together. Everyone is protective about his assets and every innovative political proposal is torn into pieces by the diverse lobbies and parties before it ever had the chance to sink in. Indian society is lacking the fertile ground for such change which would require everyone to sacrifice something and put trust into the community for the benefit of the entire nation. Without such solidarity, how should any momentum build which could potentially tear down these paralyzing political structures?

People like Abdul Kalam are certainly a great asset and vision is always a good thing to have and to follow. But if you ask me, all this is not enough to change the fact that India is systematically wasting most of its economic and welfare potential.

I would love to be able to come with a more positive assessment but after understanding how things work here in India, I have very little hope that India will ever come up to par - economy wise, infrastructure wise, social security and welfare wise, equal chances wise - with countries e.g. in Europe. Its sooo sad...

Answer 3

For almost five decades India was content to be known as a “developing” or a “Third World” country. Then in the last decade of the 20th century economic reforms happened and the growth rate doubled from around 4 per cent to 8 per cent and India came to be known as the “emerging” economy, one of the fastest growing economies in the world after China.

The developments of the past one and a half decade have brought a sea change in the thinking of some of our leaders. They all want that India should become a developed country in the next few years. It was the former President of India, A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, who in his book “Vision 2020” shared his vision of India as a developed nation.

This change in the mindset of some of our leaders is very important and gives the necessary confidence to the nation to achieve that milestone. The acquisition of foreign companies by Indian companies, the confidence shown by multinational companies in Indian managers, the enhancement of Indian engineering skills as witnessed with the introduction of the Tata's small car Nano etc. provides the necessary psychological prop to think of ourselves as a developed nation in a few years from now.

The average citizen has also started thinking in those terms. The date 2020 is not sacrosanct in the sense that on 1 January 2020 we would become a developed nation like Japan or Germany. The important thing is that we should start working in that direction and endeavour to achieve that goal say in the next 20 to 25 years. The timing is correct, what we need is a clear road-map to achieve that status. The Eleventh Five Year Plan could be termed as a beginning point for our journey towards a developed country.

Some people may think of it as a cynical idea. Even after 60 years of Independence we have not been able to ensure safe drinking water to every person or achieve 100% literacy so why talk about India as developed nation? Well this is a brute fact and should be recognized so, and efforts doubled to solve these issues on an urgent basis.

However, it is the vision which is very important. Nehru had a vision of India as a developed country over a period of time. This vision led him to set up institutions like the IITs, IIMs, Centre for Scientific & Industrial Research, Indian Space Research Organisation, Atomic Energy Commission. Defence Research & Development Organisation, Agricultural universities, AIIMS and even research in the field of social sciences and humanities.

People had at that time also laughed at him but today after 60 years the achievements by Indian scientists, engineers, doctors, managers, social scientists are known the world over. We are at a stage now where we can talk about and think about achieving the status of a developed country in the coming years.

The eyes of many countries are focused on India. The events and developments are being closely watched by them. There are some powers which would not like India to become a developed nation and so are engaged in pinpricking. It could take the form of denial of certain technologies or ill-treatment of software personnel, medical doctors etc. Therefore, keeping in mind that other countries would like to stall or delay our march towards a developed nation, we must have a clearly defined path to achieve the goal of becoming a developed nation.

As a first step, problems like illiteracy, lack of safe drinking water which have been with us since Independence need to be tackled on a war footing. Most of the diseases are water borne. If we can ensure safe drinking water to everyone the health of the population will generally improve and there will be less pressure on our hospitals.

As far as education is concerned it is simply not enough to have literate people but people with a qualification up to a minimum school level say 10th standard. If the country is going to use computers in almost every aspect of life, it is essential that the population is educated enough to handle and work on these gadgets. The Knowledge Commission has rightly emphasized the quality aspect of our elementary and higher education.

Having said that, let’s now try to build on our strengths. As we know, the process of economic reforms is on for the past 15 years. In the past one and a half decade many new first time entrepreneurs have emerged in the country such as Infosys, Wipro and many others. The process of economic reforms needs to be accelerated further so that we are able to complete this process in the next five years.

If the economy is competitive in the international market it will automatically become a strong over a period of time. Without a strong economy and a strong financial system we will not be able to keep abreast with the developed nations. The results of economic reforms are now for everyone to see; Indian firms are becoming lean and cost effective now.

Finally, we also need to have a world-class infrastructure ready in the next 15 years. We need to set up a world-class communication system, transport system including good road and rail network. All these are minimum requirements for the emergence of a developed nation, which India aspires to be. ---- INFA
