Whither India in 2022? - Amb Surendra Kumar

. .

Résumé :
Contrary to Cynics, a lot has been achieved in India since independence, especially in the last 30 years. Yes, the view that India should have grown faster like several other countries is a valid point. However to dismiss all what has been achieved by different governments is grossly unfair . India is presently the fastest growing economy whose GDP is at the striking distance of US dollars 3 trillion. It's tipped to become the 3rd largest economy in the world in the next 30 years. With 1.3 billion people chatting on as many cell phones, bursting with aspirations and expectations, India can't be wished away. The book offers kaleidoscopic perspectives of maturing of democracy in a bewilderingly diverse India, fault lines of governance, urbanisation, trade and industry, energy security, environmental challenges, national security, internal security and menace of terrorism, defence preparedness, future of India-US relations and the vision of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas. This collection offers a dispassionate discourse; it highlights what deserves to be applauded and doesn't shy away from calling a spade a spade, if needed. A must read for those who want to figure out where India is heading to.
