India has experienced strong economic growth but has not developed fully as a nation. While India has the 10th largest industrial economy and 3rd largest GDP at purchasing power parity, it still faces high poverty, unemployment, regional disparities in development, and social and gender inequalities. For India to sustain high growth and become a developed nation, it needs inclusive growth that benefits all members of society and reduces poverty.

5. India Growth Story
The factors driving growth
Population & demographic trends: Indias growth dividend
Human capital
Rising integration into global trade and investment
Investment trends: huge potential in infrastructure
Policy and institutional determinants of growth
Vibrant and substantial domestic market
6. Is India developing as a nation???
India is growing however
Development is not there in terms of:
Low agriculture growth
Low quality employment growth
Low human development
Rural urban divides
Gender and social inequalities
Regional disparities
Future GDP Growth
Currently a $1.67 trillion Economy
with a population of 1.27(2013) billion
To sustain 9% growth & progress to a
double digit growth rate
inclusiveness of all members of
society is required.
Recognition that inclusive growth
should be achieved to reduce
poverty & raise economic growth
8. Elements of development as a Nation

increase in quality
and quantity of
employment
Reduction in
regional disparities

Development

Protecting the
Environment
Five inter-related elements of Development
9. 1. Poverty level more in few states - Bihar, Uttar Pradesh , MadhyaPradesh
,Orissa, Chhattisgarh & Jharkhand.
2. In state Like Maharastra , Gujarat ,Tamilnadu & Karantaka, AndhraPradesh 1/3
rd of Population living under poverty.
3. Concentrated among agricultural labourers, casual workers,Scheduled Castes
and Scheduled Tribes.

10. Nearly three-quarters of Indias families depend on rural incomes.
The majority of Indias poor (some 770 million people or about 70 percent ) are
found in rural areas.
Indias food security depends on producing cereal crops, as well as increasing its
production of fruits, vegetables and milk to meet the demands of a growing
population with rising incomes.

12. Regional Disparities
In general, richer states grew faster than the poorer state
Post-reform period Income inequality across the States increased & its worsening.
Benefits of economic growth have been largely confined to the better developed areas.
Paradoxically, it is the natural resource-rich areas which continue to lag behind
Growth Rates have been lower in the poorer states.
Income : Per capita net state domestic product at current prices (2009-10) Highest Rs.77,878 in
Haryana, lowest Rs. 14,654 in Bihar , All-India Net National Income / capita- Rs. 44,345
Human Development Indicators - Female infant mortality rate -13(12) in Kerala to 72(70) in
Madhya Pradesh. Literacy rate varies from 47% in Bihar to 91 % in Kerala Source-Eco. survey 10-11

13. Environmental Problems
It takes 1000 years for a plastic bag
to degraded : effects on ground
water & land quality
Energy generation : Mostly from coal
in India Thermal Power
Floodwaters Effect of climate
change ?
Deforestation : A Single tree will
absorb approx. one ton of CO2 in its
life time.
Manufacturing Industries : Steel ,
Cement , etc.
Rapid increase in vehicles using
fossil fuels.
14. CONCLUSION
Development is not purely an economic phenomenon but rather a multi
dimensional process involving reorganization and reorientation of the entire
economic and social system.
Pollution control is fundamental and essential as to avoid long term damage to
the environment as a consequence of acid rain, green house effect and possible
Global Warming, and the threat to the ozone layer.
The resources & the infrastructure will make it possible for the weakest Indians to
receive the benefits of economic growth.
The Government, the public sector, private sector , NGOs , Media and civil
society has to play a active constructive role.
15. Let all people be happy,
Let all live with complete health,
Let all know what is good & what is not so good,
Let no body be subjected to troubles
