OUR NATION CONSTANTLY offers us opportunities, both as private citizens and businesses, to shape its growth trajectory. We just need an eye to spot them and the commitment to follow through.
One such opportunity that currently beckons us is to find ways of shaping the destiny of our nation through its young demography. At present, India has one of the youngest populations in the world.
