announcementfor Independence Day celebration in the year 2024
On India's 78th Independence Day, the nation looks forward to a prosperous future as outlined by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision, Amrit Kaal: Vision 2047. This strategic initiative aims to transform India into a developed nation by 2047, the centenary of its independence.
India upholds multilateralism and takes leadership on global issues such as cross-border terrorism, climate change, energy, and food security. The vision encompasses self-reliance, rapid economic growth, improved infrastructure, and technological and governance reforms. The goal is to become the world's third-largest economy by then, with a focus on comprehensive reforms and increased private sector investment in sectors like clean energy, biotechnology, advanced materials, and quantum technology.
The key components of India's progress and vision for 2047 include self-reliance and economic reforms, economic growth and global position, infrastructure and innovation, youth participation and inclusive development, and addressing challenges and opportunities. The strategy is guided by the mantra of "reform, perform, and transform," focusing on self-sufficiency as the foundation for a developed India.
India's economic growth is expected to lift global growth, with projections that its GDP share will reach 20%, establishing it as the third-largest economy globally, after the US and China. Significant emphasis is placed on modernizing infrastructure and leveraging technological advancements to boost industrialization and economic capacity.
Initiatives like Viksit Bharat@2047: Voice of Youth actively involve the younger generation in shaping the nation’s development plans, ensuring social progress and good governance. Experts, including former RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan, acknowledge challenges like job creation, inequality, and global trade tensions but affirm that India’s goal of a $50 trillion economy by 2047 is achievable through focused investment in skills, manufacturing, and governance reforms.
India's progress is not limited to its borders. The principles of democracy, pluralism, and unity in diversity are deeply embedded in Indian society, fostering strong cultural connections with nations like Kuwait. People-to-people contacts form the foundation of India-Kuwait bilateral relations, and the nation expresses gratitude to the leadership, government, and people of Kuwait for their continued support.
Bilateral relations with Kuwait continue to progress, with increased engagement at various levels and growing trade and investments. India successfully hosted the G20 and SCO Summits during the past year, demonstrating its significant role in promoting global peace, stability, and prosperity on the international stage.
The IT sector in India delivers digital solutions worldwide, and the startup ecosystem is thriving with innovation and technological advancements. India is also known as the 'Pharmacy of the World,' with world-class production and manufacturing capabilities, making it a key global partner in addressing challenges such as climate change and ensuring food and health security through resilient supply chains.
The Indian Embassy prioritizes the welfare and well-being of the large Indian community in Kuwait. On this Independence Day, well-wishes are extended to every Indian in Kuwait and all friends of India in Kuwait. India is a land of a billion opportunities with a robust economy, a leader in science and technology, a hub of innovation and IT.
India believes in resolving disputes through dialogue and diplomacy and seeks reform of multilateral institutions like the UN Security Council to better reflect the global distribution of power and ensure fairness and justice for all nations. The nation is committed to further strengthening and expanding its partnership with Kuwait.
The vision of Amrit Kaal: Vision 2047, which focuses on transformation and development, is rooted in policy-and-legislation initiatives that aim for self-reliance, rapid economic growth, improved infrastructure, and technological and governance reforms within the realm of politics. This vision is expected to position India as the world's third-largest economy, not just within its borders, but also on the global stage, influencing general-news discussions about global economic growth and international partnerships.
