Viksit Bharat: Unleashing the potential of a billion dreams
The Sunday Guardian
|July 27, 2025
This vision is not just about economic milestones but a roadmap for an India with boundless opportunities, innovation as a way of life, and efficient governance as a norm.
Over the last three decades, I have had the honour of serving India from close quarters in various capacities, witnessing its remarkable transformation journey. From the corridors of influence in Uttar Pradesh to the remotest villages, I have seen the heart of this nation—its people—thrive on resilience and get inspired by their aspirations.
Today, as we stand at an inflection point for India, the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047—a fully developed nation—feels closer and realistically attainable. This vision is not just about economic milestones but a roadmap for an India with boundless opportunities, innovation as a way of life, and efficient governance as a norm. It is a dream of a Bharat that takes pride in its heritage, builds unapologetically on its strengths, marches ahead by embracing technology, and ensures prosperity for every citizen.
INDIA: A NATION OF JOB CREATORS, NOT JUST JOB SEEKERS
Development is not solely about creating employment; it is about nurturing the inherent entrepreneurial spirit of our people. India has always been a land of startups—from the skilled artisans in villages to the tech innovators in cities. Our Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), forming the economic backbone, are poised to take centre stage in India's growth story. With the right mix of policy support, access to finance, and digital empowerment, these businesses can drive innovation, social transformation, and global wealth creation.
The gig economy has emerged as a significant employment contributor. According to NITI Aayog, in 2020-21, 7.7 million workers were engaged in the gig economy, constituting 2.6% of the non-agricultural workforce. By 2029-30, this number is expected to rise to 23.5 million, forming 6.7% of the non-agricultural workforce, reflecting the shifting dynamics of work in a new Bharat.
