Since 1947, a multitude of leading western observers doubted the ability of India—a multicultural and poly-linguistic democracy—to survive. However, not only did we defy our sceptics in standing united and democratic to our core, but we also emerged as a global leader across aspects of multilateralism, science, technology, medicine and combating climate change. Today, it gives me immense pleasure to pen down my vision for India as we march towards our 100 years of Independence, in this Amrit Kaal.
In the next 25 years leading to 100 years of independent India, it is my strong belief that we stand at the cusp of making a greater impact at a global stage. It will be in the way the country does business with the world, or by working towards becoming a powerhouse for technological innovations. In the coming time, ensuring quality healthcare and education to all its citizens will also be a key factor in boosting India’s socio-economic development.
During the COP26 deliberations in 2021, India emerged as a crusader in adopting net-zero fossil fuel emission targets. We expect to cut down carbon emissions drastically over the next few years and become one of the handful of countries approaching net-zero emissions over the next 25 years.
