India should align with Pakistan to create a common market because additionally demand in Pakistan will boom industries here. Pakistan can become developed like Japan with India's help once terrorism is controlled. After all these guys have potential, if nothing else to entertain us - just pick up whos and whos of our top bollywood stars, ALL ARE OF PAKISTAN ORIGINS -- Shammi Kapoor, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Prithvi raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Jitendra, Balraj Sahni, and so on and on, for ever and our PM no less himself was actually born in Pakistan, no less.

statistics of India's future GDP at 8% groth rate
by panduranga vittal on Aug 18, 2011 11:02 AM  | Hide replies

In dollar terms (purchasing power parity), according to world bank
India’s GDP according to world bank in 2010 is 4.198 trillion US$ in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP)
At present India’s growth rate is about 8% or even more ( except in 2008)
4.198x 108/100 = 4.534 trillion US$ for 2011
4.534x 108/100= 4.897 trillion US$ for 2012
4.897x 108/100= 5.289 trillion US$ for 2013
5.289x 108/100= 5.712 trillion US$ for 2014
5.712x 108/100= 6.169 trillion US$ for 2015
6.169x 108/100= 6.663 trillion US$ for 2016
6.663x108/100= 7.196 trillion US$ for 2017 7.196x108/100= 7.772 trillion US$ for 2018
7.772x108/100= 8.394 trillion US$ for 2019
8.394x108/100= 9.066 trillion US$ for 2020
9.066x108/100= 9.791 trillion US$ for 2021
9.791x108/100= 10.574 trillion US$ for 2021

The presen GDP of China is 10.084 trillion US$ ( world bank). So if we maintain the growth rate of 8% we will reach China's present level in about 11 years. Of course, China will have then at least 75% more GDP than our's

Hi Vittal
that is all fine ,,we must not be excessivley obsessed with GDP growth rate alone

Rather how we use our economy to rotate money ,,(Not cricket betting or black money nor people moving wealth out of India


we must find ways to rotate money inside indian economy with out black money and corruption

Such a viobrant economy will touch people lives and transforming their lives

It is important we do not have slums rather good human inhabitated housing clusters with clean water and power and access to healthcare

If we still have slums and poverty and the slums do not have access to drinking water or adeqaute power supply then that kind of INDIA no matter what the GDP is useless

so it is better to have a balanced economy and people have access to housing ,,healthcare and food

Ok that should not concern us Indians
either way is fine infact US dollar is fine too
so Iam not worried about external factors

we must control corruption and inflation
if we just do the above ,,path becomes very clear and clean
then ofcourse we need good administrators and policies

Public Private model worked fine and more or less
DELHI T3 terminal
Bangalore intl airport plus Hyd intl airports
NEW DELHI METRO EXPRESS all have shown it is possible to adopt the model

we might need to tweak ,,use cutting edge tech like Sharepoint 2011 portal based bids and tenders through web

It can be exposed to RTI activists(I mean projects progress) with a dedicated bank account (Finances)

This will ensure a yomen of confidence both to business and public

once we have things in place

we need to
========
Step up BAARC (Plutonium plus Thorium based nuclear power reactors) plus North east Hydro electric dams (that is the only way as India is densely populated besides solar power

2.then ofcourse RFID based road toll system on National highways
it will cut corruption(between lorry drivers and brake inspectora at check posts) ,,saves fuel(as lorries will pile up or clogg near check posts ) precious diesel or petrol is wasted as they slog in First gear

we could remove the above bottleneck with RFID based tech and systems first on Golden Quadrilateral then on all other district roads (second stage)

If we get the above right ,,we will be on right

track

Poverty will fall in chunks (1o percent at a time) and eventually disappears(in five to six years time span)

POOR VS RICH
==========
If we debate this as a topic ,,we will not go anywhere because rich will feel insecure ,,while poor will feel something isnot justified

If we debate Rasing Standard of Living then whole of india unites like

Give housing with new materials

2.Replicate massive Narayana hrudayala plus AArvind eye hosiptal models

3.Supply medicines in van based dispenseries to all poor suburbs (at a very subsidised cost)

4.make PDS fully efficient

Ofcourse better roads ,,water and waste collection systems

This will make all Indians come together as one ,,as they realise and believe India growth story

Ofcourse population growth needs to fall for atleast a decade or two
Fruits of development will reach the masses faster
