Aditya Pittie’s book is a timely and important contribution to the national discourse. Viksit Bharat: India @2047 is not merely a compilation of facts and figures—it is a vision document that charts how Bharat can transform itself into a developed nation by the centenary of independence. What struck me most is the balance: it looks at economic growth alongside social equity, innovation alongside tradition, sustainability alongside ambition. This holistic approach reflects the spirit of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas’ that has been the cornerstone of India’s transformation in the last decade under Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji’s leadership.
The book carefully analyses the strides we have already made—Digital India, UPI, Make in India, Ayushman Bharat, ISRO’s space successes—and then lays out the road ahead, acknowledging the challenges while presenting actionable solutions. It reads both as a policy guide and a call to action. For policymakers, entrepreneurs, youth leaders, and ordinary citizens, this book serves as a reminder that the dream of Viksit Bharat is not distant—it is within our grasp if we harness our collective energy and creativity.
I believe this book will ignite conversations and inspire action across sectors. As someone deeply invested in India’s democratic journey and developmental story, I find Viksit Bharat: India @2047 to be a must-read for anyone who wants to play an active role in shaping Bharat’s destiny. It reaffirms the conviction that the 21st century truly belongs to India.”
As India approaches the centenary of its independence in 2047, we stand at a pivotal moment in our nation’s history. The vision of Viksit Bharat—a developed India—beckons us forward, challenging us to transform our country into a global powerhouse that combines economic prosperity with social equity, technological advancement with cultural richness, and environmental sustainability with geopolitical leadership. This book, “Viksit Bharat: India @2047,” outlines a comprehensive roadmap that delves deep into every facet of this ambitious journey, providing a thorough plan for the next quarter-century of India’s development.
The concept of Viksit Bharat is not merely an aspiration; it is an imperative for a nation of 1.4 billion people whose dreams and aspirations have the power to reshape the global order. As we embark on this transformative journey, we are guided by the ethos of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas”—a philosophy that underscores the transformative potential of collective efforts, inclusive growth, mutual trust, and everyone’s endeavours. This philosophy underscores the essence of our approach: the path to a developed India is one that every citizen must walk together.
I delve deep into every facet of this monumental task in the following pages. From economic transformation and social welfare to technological innovation and environmental conservation, we explore the challenges and opportunities ahead. Each chapter not only provides a detailed analysis of the current landscape but also offers bold, actionable recommendations to propel India forward.
The journey to Viksit Bharat is built upon the foundation of our achievements in the last ten years. We have made significant strides in areas such as digital infrastructure, with initiatives like Digital India and the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) revolutionising how our citizens interact with technology and conduct financial transactions. Our space programme has reached new heights, with missions to the Moon and Mars showcasing our technological prowess. The Make in India initiative has begun transforming our manufacturing sector, while schemes like Ayushman Bharat reshape healthcare delivery.
Yet, we recognise that the road ahead is long and complex. We must address challenges such as income inequality, regional disparities, and ensure that the fruits of development reach every corner of our vast and diverse nation.
This book is a collection of facts and figures as well as a call to action. Through data-driven analysis, I aim to help policymakers, industry leaders, academics, and citizens contribute to this national mission. The recommendations presented here are the result of extensive research, and they not only offer a blueprint for action but also invite further discussion and refinement as we collectively shape our nation’s future.
As we look towards 2047, we envision an India that is economically prosperous, socially harmonious, technologically advanced, and globally influential. We see a nation that has harnessed the power of its demographic dividend, leveraged its cultural strengths, and overcome its historical challenges. This India of 2047 is a leader in innovation, a champion of sustainable development, and a beacon of democratic values on the world stage.
The task before us is immense, but so is our potential. The spirit of “Everything is Possible” that has driven India’s progress thus far will be our guiding light as we navigate the complexities of the 21st century. From the bustling metropolises to the remotest villages, from cutting edge research laboratories to traditional artisan workshops, the energy and creativity of every Indian will be crucial in realising this vision.
