The question Can India become a superpower is in minds of many who have seen the country’s explosive growth in the years after the IT boom. But before we do the entire math, we have to understand what a superpower really means. The way popular media has defined it is way too restrictive with all points given to growth rate, defense power and foreign influence. Time has come for us to look at the bigger and more realistic picture.
In the real world, big growth numbers and huge military without good health care system, equal access to education and jobs for women and minorities and good care of environment does not mean much. Let us look at China; the country is good very good in production, technology and also in defense. But the human rights situation, restriction in freedom of expression and the discrimination against women that is forcing parents to abandon their daughters is frightening. China is powerful nation inn terms of economic capacity but it is not a superpower.
Same would apply for India. The country has tremendous strength in terms of trained human resources but then more than 40% of India’s population is illiterate. For a country of billion people, that number is quite huge. Also there are more than 300 million living under poverty, most of whom are women and children.

Very Simple. Live your way. Give damn to the grown up countries. Make known to each Indian that we are BIG indeed. Of course try to reduce popullation. Take a stron foot to kill the cross boder terrorism.

Will Power is the Strenth. India already has Unity in Diversity. Now its time to have Unity in Growth too.

Wishes for the budding ECONOMIC Super Power.

Education.

Civil Rights.

Industry.

Find and fund one product. A car, a computer, a toaster, toilet, airplane, camera, solar cell...whatever...make it the best the world has ever seen. OWN that market. Repeat.

You have the man-power.

You have the resources.

You need the will.
