India's Path to Prosperity 2022-2047

A Workable Agenda for the Next 10-15 Years

By: Subodh Mathur

Narrated by: Sam Kenney

What do we have to do to make India a prosperous country by 2047, the year we will celebrate 100 years of political independence? That's only 25 years away.

In this fast-changing world, it is unrealistic to have a concrete 25-year plan. Instead, this audiobook lays out the key issues that must be resolved in the next 10 to 15 years (Phase 1) to lay the foundations of prosperity. After that, India can move quickly in the remaining years (Phase 2) of its path to prosperity, taking advantage of opportunities as they arise.

These fundamental issues are complex, and their workable solutions have yet to be agreed upon.

For example: In India, the average farmers, marginal and small, are poor. What will their children and grandchildren do? They can never become well-off from the small piece of land the family has. Plus, they go to lousy schools and tend to be undernourished. So, their skill levels are low fault. Will they still be poor in 2047? If yes, how will India be prosperous?

Hence, the book does not provide detailed solutions - just broadly defined options, where possible. The idea is to set off national discussions about these key issues.

The audiobook has no mathematics or jargon, as it was written at the standard reading level of high school students.
