when will india be a developed nation?will we be able to see?

Answer 1

Goldman sachs prediction is that India could become the 3rd largest economy of the world by 2030 based on a growth rate of 6.5% per year.
Considering the fact that India's current GDP growth rate is cruising at 9.3%, yes, I'd say that it's more than possible that we'll all live to see India as a developed nation sooner than we think.

Answer 2

after we, the human beings make a flow that is going to likely be stepped forward! yet i wish that when the GDP in retaining with capita has been better to about 10 fold of what that is now, than India will be less than a extra perfect position. So i wish that about 2030-2040 human beings will commence seeing an India that is extra politically and economically sturdy and preserve!

Answer 10

Eradication of poverty and reforms:-

All below poverty line youths above 18 years of age and willing to be self relient must be provided with a one time free grant of Rs. 25,000- to start any business or self employment scheme by government through post offices for convenience. If, 1 crore youths are covered each year then cost would be only Rs. 25,000 crore per year and 5 crore people including their family members would get benifited. Thus in about 5 years 25 crore people would be benifited and poverty could be eradicated by self relience and political will.
To increase the income of Railways, eradicate unemployment from India and stop passengers from travelling without tickets in Railways in one single step.
This can be done. A bus employs 2-3 conductors, besides the driver and helper if any to run a bus. These conductors sell and check tickets from the passengers. They work in commission basis and the private bus operators make good profits.
If it is possible with buses, why not Railway Coaches, equal or more people travel in Railway Coaches than a bus in an average. If 2 conductors are employed by the Railways on commission basis in each coach, not only employment will be generated to a huge extent but also Railways/Government would benefit from increased sell of tickets and without ticket travel would also be stopped.
N.B: The Railway Ticket counters would not however be closed down and sell season tickets and reserved tickets.
We have made education for children a fundamental right in our constitution. But, nothing have been done except collecting 2 % surcharge on all central taxes and misusing them in other sectors. The government should ideally make education upto class 12 compulsory for all children. This should be free for BPL students in all government run and aided instituitions. Then the most important step should be taken the children still out of schools should be kept in government run and aided hostels (free of cost for BPL students) and imparted education. Grades instead of marks should be given upto class 10 and all students should be passed and promoted irrespective of the marks scored. The students who could not secure satisfactory grades in class 10 Matriculation examination should undergo 2 years vocational education of class 11 and class 12 compulsorily. Others can opt for their choicable subjects.
We are talking about 2-3% of GDP investment in healthcare in the next 5 year plan. However nothing can be done if the BPL patients who form 70% of the cases in government run and aided hospitals are properly catered. In this eventual world of privatisation if any semblance of humanity is to be restored; all treatments, medicines, diagonistics facilities for all BPL patients and meals for indoor BPL patients should be provided totally free of cost in all government run and aided hospitals.
Truely, Federal Indian Republic should be setup to control many of our current problems:-

1."Federal Republic of India" should be formed of constituent "Autonomous States" and " Autonomous Republics (Kashmir & Nagaland / Nagalim)".
2.The Rajyasabha (upper house) of Parliament should be formed only by the representatives (M.Ps) sent by the constituent " Autonomous States" and "Autonomous Republics" in equal numbers of 2 after electing them by their Legislative Assemblies.
3.For any bill to be passed in Indian Parliament it should be approved by at least 2/3rd M.Ps in both Loksabha (lower house) and Rajyasabha (upper house) and for constitution change the ratio should be 3/4th required.
4.Unicameral Legislative Assemblies shall remain in each of the "Autonomous States" and " Autonomous Republics" where the people of each state shall elect their M.LAs and for passing a bill approval of 2/3rd M.LAs shall be required.
5.The domestic borders of the Autonomous States and international and domestic borders of Autonomous Republics can not be altered by the Federal Government at the centre without prior permission of the affecting states or republics respectively.
6.Concurrent list subjects of the constitution should be wholly passed to the Autonomous Republics.
7.Dual citizenship one of the Country and the other of the State or Republic in which the person was born should be applied in India.
8.The excise duties should be levied by Federal Government but collected and appropriated by the Autonomous States and Autonomous Republics.
9.Compulsory school education for BPL students and government healthcare for BPL patients should be free.
10.Technical service Education should be promoted by all as an alternative source of livelihood to industries of polluting nature.

Social Synthesis


•Human consciousness is an indivisible part of the all pervading universal stream of consciousness.
•The conscience of a person is one’s individual consciousness which helps us to judge right or wrong. Thus all persons irrespective of religion, class and race should coexist peacefully.
•A wrong doer is a person whose conscience is suppressed.
•Thus, all humans should have equal social, political , religious and economic rights which would help in purifying their conscience.
•All persons of a particular nation should share a common bond of nationalism not only for national or individual development but for the betterment of the whole universe.
•Inspite of similarities and unity a each person is unique in manifestation. Likewise, all nations are somewhat apart inspite of the inherent common bonding. Thus, all nations should develop individually and collectively to fulfill not only internal aspirations but also strive to develop universal humanism for the peace, progress and prosperity of the human race and the universe.
•Conservation of nature is the basis of human and universal existence.
•Prevention of all types of pollution is required for this purpose to the greatest extent.

Please consider the following principles accepted world-wide as a
3rd idealogy against communism and capitalism:-
Liberal Welfare Politics
a) Universalism
1. Truth may be said to be universal, as opposed to relativism
conceptions;
2. Rights may be said universals, for example natural rights or
the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen,
heavily influenced by the philosophy of the Enlightenment and its
conception of a universal human nature;
3. In comparative religion, universalism is the belief that
true and valuable insights are available in many of the religious
traditions which have grown up in various human cultures. It posits
that a spiritually aware person will respect religious traditions
other than his own and will be open to learning from them. It does
not deny that immersion in one tradition is a useful anchor for an
individual's spiritual development. While it celebrates the richness
and value to be found among humankind's religious traditions, it
does not necessarily deny that some things done in the name of
religion, and some religious practices, are not constructive.
4. Universalism is a synonym for moral universalism, as a
compromise between moral relativism and moral absolutism.
5. Universalism also mean the wish for a closer union between
all people of the world (the emergence of world citizens) and/or the
aim of creating common global institutions (democratic
globalization).
b) Welfare Market Economy
1. The social market economy seeks a middle path between
socialism and capitalism (i.e. a mixed economy) and aims at
maintaining a balance between a high rate of economic growth, low
inflation, low levels of unemployment, good working conditions,
social welfare, and public services, by using state intervention.
2. An important part of social market economies is the tri-
partite talks between labour unions, employers' organizations and
the state in which they strike agreements on issues like price
levels, wage increases, tax rates and pension entitlements.
Collective bargaining is often done on a national level not between
one corporation and one union, but national employers' organizations
and national trade unions.
c) Welfare State
1. The provision of welfare services by the state.
2. An ideal model in which the state assumes primary
responsibility for the welfare of its citizens. This responsibility
is comprehensive, because all aspects of welfare are considered;
a "safety net" is not enough, nor are minimum standards. It is
universal, because it covers every person as a matter of right.
3. The provision of welfare in society. In many "welfare
states", especially in continental Europe, welfare is not actually
provided by the state, but by a combination of independent,
voluntary, mutualist and government services. The functional
provider of benefits and services may be a central or state
government, a state-sponsored company or agency, a private
corporation, a charity or another form of non-profit organisation.
d) Welfare Democracy
1. Regulatory systems over private enterprise in the interests
of workers, consumers and small enterprise.
2. A social market economy over a free market, if not, in some
cases and to some extent, planned economy.
3. Advocacy of fair trade over free trade.
4. An extensive system of social security (though usually not
to the extent advocated by democratic socialists or other socialist
groups), notably to counteract the effects of poverty and to insure
the citizens against loss of income following illness or
unemployment. (see welfare state)
5. Government-owned or subsidised programs of education,
healthcare, child care, etc. for all citizens.
6. Moderate to high levels of taxation to fund government
expenditure and a progressive taxation system.
7. A system of industrial regulation (statutory or union-
established minimum wages, working conditions, protection against
arbitrary dismissal).
8. Environmental protection laws (although not to the extent
advocated by Greens).
9. Immigration and multiculturalism.
10. A secular and progressive social policy, although this varies
markedly in degree. Most social democrats support gay marriage,
abortion and a liberal drug policy, while others are either non-
committed or openly opposed strongly to these policies, although
feigned opposition may be employed for political expediency.
11. A foreign policy supporting the promotion of democracy, the
protection of human rights and, where possible, effective
multilateralism.
12. Dissimilar to many liberals, social democrats advocate social
rights, rather than just human rights.
e) Humanism
1. Opposition to racism and weapons of mass destruction and support
of strong human rights, are fairly uncontroversial.
2. That divorce and birth control should be legal, the right to
abortion and that technology can improve life are widely accepted
today in the Western world.
3. Furthermore, its proposal of an international court has since
been implemented.
f) Liberalism
1. Individual liberties, personal dignity, free ____expression,
religious tolerance, private property, universal human rights,
transparency of government, limitations on government power, popular
sovereignty, national self-determination, privacy, enlightened and
rational policy, the rule of law, fundamental equality, a free
market economy, and free trade were all radical notions some 250
years ago. Liberal democracy, in its typical form of multiparty
political pluralism, has spread to much of the world.
2. Broadly speaking, contemporary liberalism emphasizes
individual rights. It seeks a society characterized by freedom of
thought for individuals, limitations on power, especially of
government and religion, the rule of law, free public education, the
free exchange of ideas, a market economy that supports relatively
free private enterprise, and a transparent system of government in
which the rights of all citizens are protected. In modern society,
liberals favor a liberal democracy with open and fair elections,
where all citizens have equal rights by law and an equal opportunity
to succeed[3].
3. Many liberals advocate a greater degree of government
interference in the free market, often in the form of anti-
discrimination laws, civil service examinations, universal
education, and progressive taxation. This philosophy frequently
extends to a belief that the government should provide for a degree
of general welfare, including the dole for the poor, housing for the
homeless, and medical care for the sick. Such publicly-funded
initiatives and interferences in the market are rejected by modern
advocates of classical liberalism, which emphasizes free private
enterprise, individual property rights and freedom of contract;
classical liberals hold that economic inequality, as arising
naturally from competition in the free market, does not justify the
violation of private property rights. However, modern advocates of
classical liberalism do advocate a heavier taxation on the
corporation, as opposed to the current trend of the burden of income
tax resting on the shoulders of the individual worker, as did the
early classical liberals.
g) Civil Society
1. Civil society refers to the arena of uncoerced collective
action around shared interests, purposes and values. In theory, its
institutional forms are distinct from those of the state, family and
market, though in practice, the boundaries between state, civil
society, family and market are often complex, blurred and
negotiated. Civil society commonly embraces a diversity of spaces,
actors and institutional forms, varying in their degree of
formality, autonomy and power. Civil societies are often populated
by organisations such as registered charities, development non-
governmental organisations, community groups, women's organisations,
faith-based organisations, professional associations, trade unions,
self-help groups, social movements, business associations,
coalitions and advocacy groups.
2. Civil society and democracyThe literature on links between
civil society and democracy have their root in early liberal
writings like those of de Tocqueville. However they were developed
in significant ways by 20th century theorists like Gabriel Almond
and Sidney Verba, who identified the role of civil society in a
democratic order as vital.
3. They argued that the political element of many civil society
organisations facilitates better awareness and a more informed
citizenry, who make better voting choices, participate in politics,
and hold government more accountable as a result.
4. More recently, Robert Putnam has argued that even non-
political organisations in civil society are vital for democracy.
This is because they build social capital, trust and shared values,
which are transferred into the political sphere and help to hold
society together, facilitating an understanding of the
interconnectedness of society and interests within it.
5. Civil society and globalisation The term civil society is
currently often used by critics and activists as a reference to
sources of resistance to and the domain of social life which needs
to be protected against globalization. This is because it is seen as
acting beyond boundaries and across different territories. However,
as for civil society can, under many definitions, include those
businesses and institutions who support globalization, this is a
contested use.
h) Grassroot Multiparty Proportional Representation Democracy
1. A multi-party Proportional Representation type of democratic
political system.
2. Unlike a single-party system (or a non-partisan democracy),
it encourages the general constituency to form multiple distinct,
officially recognized groups, generally called political parties.
Each party competes for votes from the enfranchised constituents
(those allowed to vote). A multi-party system is essential for
representative democracies, because it prevents the leadership of a
single party from setting policy without challenge.
3. Grassroot level democracy is a tendency towards designing
political processes where as much decision-making authority as is
practical is shifted to the organization's lowest geographic level
of organization. To cite a specific hypothetical example, a
grassroots national organization, such as an NGO, would place as
much decision-making power as possible in the hands of a local
chapter instead of the head office. The principle is that for
democratic power to be best exercised it must be vested in a local
community instead of isolated, atomized individuals. As such,
grassroots organizations exist in contrast to so-called
participatory systems, which tend to allow individuals equal access
to decision-making irrespective of their standing in a local
community, and, which particular community they reside. As well,
grassroots systems also differ from representative systems that
allow local communities or national memberships to elect
representatives who then go on to make decisions.
i) Patriotism
1. Patriotism denotes positive and supportive attitudes to
a 'fatherland' (Latin patria), by individuals and groups.
The 'fatherland' can be a region or a city, but patriotism usually
applies to a nation and/or a nation-state. Patriotism covers such
attitudes as: pride in its achievements and culture, the desire to
preserve its character, and identification with other members of the
nation. In the modern world, patriotism is closely associated with
nationalism, and is often used as a synonym for it. Strictly
speaking, nationalism refers more to ideology and to political
movements, and patriotism more to attitudes. Both of them may
include negative attitudes to other people's 'fatherland'.
2. Patriotism has connotations of self-sacrifice, implying that
the individual should place the interests of the nation, and common
good of its political community, above their personal and group
interests. In wartime,the sacrifice may extend to their own life. In
this context, patriotism is seen as an explanation for the apparent
suspension of the instinct for self-preservation, which implies that
no-one would voluntarily serve in a wartime army.
3. Patriotism has other ethical connotations: it implies that
the fatherland (however defined) is a moral standard or moral value
in itself. The ____expression my country right or wrong - perhaps a
misquotation of the American naval officer Stephen Decatur, but also
attributed to Carl Schurz - is the extreme form of this belief.
4. The primary implication of patriotism in ethics is that a
person has more moral duties to fellow members of the national
community, than to non-members. In social science terminology, this
doctrine is a form of discrimination. Criticism of patriotism in
ethics is mainly directed at this moral preference: the view (in
ethics) that moral duties apply equally to all humans is known as
cosmopolitanism. In practice, many patriots would see treason rather
than cosmopolitanism as the 'opposite of patriotism'.
j) Sustainability
Community-based economics, e.g. LETS, local purchasing, co-housing,
Community-supported agriculture.
Decentralization, e.g. via Bioregional democracy, sustainable
agriculture, regional transmission grids.
Ecological Wisdom, e.g. ending human-caused extinction, promoting
ecological health.
Feminism, e.g. health security especially for mothers and children,
and thus a focus on environmental health, gender equity in
government; also referred to as Postpatriarchal Values, e.g. de-
emphasizing competition and encouraging cooperation.
Grassroots democracy, e.g. via electoral reform to improve
deliberative democracy.
Non-violence, e.g. via de-escalation, peace processes.
Personal and global responsibility, e.g. moral purchasing, voluntary
simplicity.
Respect for diversity, e.g. via fair trade, bioregional democracy.
Social justice, e.g. harm reduction rather than zero tolerance, a
living wage.
Future Focus/Sustainability, e.g. measuring well-being effect over
seven generations, leading to what is called seven-generation
sustainability, Renewable energy and Conservation, New Urbanism,
Zero waste.
Gram Swaraj or State Intervention:-
Thanks Sir for your praise, but I want to share a few facts regarding Gram Swaraj or Local Governance. It is argued by ardent followers of the policy of Gram Swaraj or Local Governance that bureacratic administration is the root of all evils. But, after looking on the widely implemented Gram Swaraj or Local Governance in West Bengal it warns us to a great extent. The policy has resulted in formation of an elite corrupted feudal lord system in localities instead of an efficient leadership. The local goons and politicians have received powers from the hand of government officials like BDOs and SDOs. Though some of these officers were corrupt, most of them were academically brilliant and came from good family backgrounds by clearing the IAS or State civil servise exams. After all Bureaucratic system is not all that bad as it is potrayed. Nowadays the democratization and widening of corruption has taken place as through the local elections the local powerful persons get elected. Even the women candidates are their sisters or housewives in most cases. The Backward caste reserved seats are also likewise wrested by their supporters and they have no independent stand in most cases. Imagine who would oppose them and what opposing them could mean to innocent public. After all politicians are far worse off in corruption and administration than the bureacrats and technocrats. The erstwhile government officers are reduced to titular heads. They were transfered from time to time and could not gain much power. On the other hand Gram Swaraj or Local Governance have meant enormous power for these semi feudal lords for generations.
Is this democracy? Is this development and growth? In a state like West Bengal where casteism and communalism was unheard off atleast in small localities have seen a resurgence of these vices due to political interests of these local politicians. Even they asked their followers in certain places to boycott midday meals and Sarva Siksha Abhijan because all children ssit and eat together there the same meal cooked by persons of various communities. Thus, it is also poisoning the young minds in the institutions of knowledge.
Any guess why no anti-incumbency factor works in West Bengal. These feudal interest groups is sustaining the ruling CPI(M) for over 30 years. No opposition is ever possible. Because the successful implementation of Gram Swaraj or Local Governance has resulted in the death of democracy and rise of feudal system, once again!
