In a crucial prelude to the Council meeting, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is expected to shed light on the visionary ‘Viksit Bharat’ concept and its comprehensive action plan during the Budget announcement on July 23. This anticipation sets the stage for a broader discussion on India’s developmental roadmap over the next quarter-century.
The ‘Viksit Bharat@2047’ blueprint envisions India evolving into a $30 trillion economy by the year 2047, marking the centennial of its independence. This document not only targets economic milestones but also aims for leaps in social progress, environmental sustainability, and governance excellence, thereby encompassing a holistic approach to development.
In the year 2023, the responsibility of piecing together this grand tapestry of sectoral strategies into a unified vision document for ‘Viksit Bharat@2047’ was bestowed upon the NITI Aayog. The initiative represents a pivotal undertaking in charting the course for India’s journey towards achieving the echelon of developed nations by the year 2047, ensuring a future marked by prosperous economic conditions, societal advancement, sustainable ecological practices, and robust governance frameworks.
The upcoming Governing Council meeting of the NITi Aayog under the stewardship of Prime Minister Narendra Modi thus stands as a momentous occasion, poised to further define the contours of India’s developmental trajectory toward a progressive and thriving democracy.
