My father used to tell me how the country was during the Congress regimes. License raj made sure that the country always remain a socialist hellhole with intense bureaucracy.

Today people have access to so many media and knowledge. The LPG reforms would have never happened if we didn't face a BOP problem and the urging by the World bank. Today the country has started to understand how decades were wasted and is trying to improve on itself. This country has a lot of problems. Ranging from corruption to unemployment, stupid education system and judicial clutter. But slowly reforms are happening and initiatives like Make in India surely are contributing a lot.

Constructive criticism is from a place of love for our country & a desire to improve & to work towards making our nation better. Some often get offended, angry, or defensive, when you point out flaws in our system. However, by labelling critics as "anti-national," they avoid confronting the reality of the problems. People should remember, loving our nation doesn't mean we have to be silent about its flaws. There are 2 types of manufacturing sectors: Local (National/domestic) & Global. Unemployment is all over India, but Bihar & Rajasthan, Haryana are suffering more due to severe lack of any type of manufacturing in these States. Corporate loan is 5% to 7% while, farmers pay 11% for their loans. Only around 122 million people in India have jobs that pay a salary, out of 582 million workers in India. The main issues in fall in manufacturing are the following: inflation combined with 5X high custom tariffs, lack of encouraging entrepreneurial environment (tax burden on youth with high income), and the big players giving donations are under political protection while young players get harassed & arm twisted by govt agencies. A rigid union govt in any country, allows politicians to maintain power despite failures, & allows organized corruption to grow from within the system. India's manufacturing has fallen from 17% to 13% to 11%, as per official govt data of Index of Industrial production performance in India. Meanwhile, Indian banks have written off 10,09,511 crores of loans in 5 years. As per Organization for Economic Cooperation & Development's 2023 database, China global manufacturing is 24%, compared to India's being less than 3% since many decades. PM's Skill India mission, launched in 2015, delivered lacklustre results. Its flagship programme, the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana, is largely deemed to be a failure, with dismal placement rates of 18.4% for version 1.0, 23.4% & just 10.1% for version 2.0 & 3.0, respectively. India is placed 134 out-of 193 in the UN's human development 2022 report. Sbi underwrites the entire loan of 12,770 crores of Company A, who has created far fewer jobs than any one company, Amul/TATA/any major bank. Indians are desperately illegally going into developed countries to find good jobs. We are also the largest importer of foreign military items from the west. Goodwill is essential for progress; so is avoiding becoming harmful, like China. China became developed when they had the highest youth population. India's Union Govt says they can't help if there is high unemployment. While, corporate tax cut by half in 10 years. The number of wilful defaulters of loans have peaked 1.6 times from 2014 to 2023. India has missed out on the export opportunity presented by China’s withdrawal from labour-intensive manufacturing sectors such as apparel, leather, textiles, footwear, gems & jewellery (in fact it has dropped nearly 12% compared to pre-pandemic levels 5 years ago); while, countries like Vietnam, Poland, Germany, & France have managed to increase their global export share in major job-creating sectors. While, China has successfully managed to push-out Indian SMEs from the fast-growing Asian markets, using free-trade agreements like Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership. India's Union government’s economic philosophy was the Washington Consensus "trickle-down" economic development model (which failed in the US). It only makes the super rich even richer, while the majority become beggars. Majority of household now have no choice but to spend just on bare essentials for survival, everything is costly & high gst. When common people fight with each other for scraps; the elites draw further into their private gated communities. In direct taxes, it is the individual income tax that has overtaken corporate taxes in 2022-2023. It is also the people who pay the most taxes that have no social security & pension support. People, mostly from the middle class, are contributing more in taxes than corporates, even as the stock markets have been quadrupled. The government's gamble was that the tax break would boost income & earn it taxes. But that hasn't been the case. Salaried individuals get no refund on GST paid, but corporates get an input tax credit. Jobs are driven by middle-class private sector, particularly through small & medium-sized businesses. Middle-class entrepreneurs play a crucial role in not only jobs but also in wages growth, which boosts per capita income of a nation; these directly depend on Union govt's economic policies & increased funding to states for education. Single election will be a note ban type of blunder, making elected politicians more unaccountable. Investment potential index of Indian states are based on the following points: 1. Business perceptions: pleasant & easy experience. (The union govt is responsible for making sure the courts have enough staff & resources, but they're not doing it. This means that judges & staff are overwhelmed with these pending cases. There are too many cases & not enough people to handle them. It's like trying to hold too much water in a cup at once - something will give out. It's not just the judges & staff who are affected. Lawyers needed from govt side, are also feeling frustrated & leaving their jobs. This makes the whole system even more overwhelmed. It's a vicious cycle that's hard to break. It's time for the union govt to take help to support the people working in the judiciary by adding adequate staff, & provide the basic infrastructure to run these pending cases.) 2. Freedom from harassment by special interest groups, Govt agencies raids & arm twisting for political donations, 3. Public infrastructure: As of May 2024, as per govt, out of 1,817 projects monitored, 831 are delayed. 458 infrastructure projects in India, each costing Rs 150 crore or more, have experienced cost overruns. 4. Economic climate that support & encourages youth entrepreneurs (by lowering income tax burden), 5. Labour needs to be ready. This doesn't mean labour laws. It means that firms don't like to spend money to conduct re-training. Ironically, Indian firms also don't want to pay better wages to people who are pre-trained & don't need training. 6. Lastly, "availability" of land in the right location. And not about the price of the land or govt to give land for free to industrialists.

[@umamaheshwarankrishnamurth4486]

I think sector wise analysis would help a lot better as against comparing with GDP as a primary benchmark. For instance..make in India should certainly be compared in auto sector (which is still manufacturing) growth in absolute numbers vs where we were 10 years ago. How many house holds have automobile 10 years before vs now... these should certainly indicate that if there is external dependency or helps in achieving self sufficiency. Similar comparison could be made in appliances sector, textile etc (pretty much anything other than services sector). We can take credit where it is due... Make in India regardless is a very well positioned marketing by the current government. Growth on this initiative should be given another 10 years, I suppose.

[@bijucherian6442]

The make in India is a glamour front esp in areas requiring advanced teachnology eg science,research, millitary applications.Issue is it takes decades to research and come up with internationally competitive goods here,the rest of the more well off counteries move at breakneck speeds.So by the time you come up with a product its outdated.I have been to China Europe and the US for promoting my business,,the pace of innovation research and goods manufacturing is at another level.So the risk is if theres a sudden war with china etc,Indias esp millitary tech is far far outdated(curreny relies on 70 % russian parta)which puts us at significant disadvantage.The better option is reform the business trade land and labour sectors,attract mnc manufacturing then reverse engineer all (time saved with what everybody already knows no point wasting time) then surge ahead on gov initiated mske in India.BTW this is what china does(full scale gov support to reverse engineer goods what mcs produce that is internationally competitive,then sell local goods to kill off the mncs,eg chinese electric car maker BYD

[@bijucherian6442]

So the mncs have the masdive capital and advanced tech and macinery to maufacture at scale.Every step can be reversed engineered with gov support and local startups then given generous subsidy to outcompete mnc as china does,you save wasting time ,with trying from scratch with make in india.The make in india should only be given impetus at the right time,as theres multiple issues like lack of international std tech,severe lack of skillsets in labour force and land and power issues anyway ie infrastructure to grapple with.Instead of gov directly taking tax from som mncs contract them with putting part of taxes to direct infrastructure building and maintainence responsibility(avoids gov corruption and bribes)eg Gangzhou highway connecting Hong Kong done this way.etc

Knew from the begining this made in India was only politically motivated.Actual serious structural changes ,red tape and land reforms not touched.So growth in India is only externally pushed by world trade demands and peoples exposure via media to transformation as usual,nothing to do with government ,sad state of affairs and propaganda as usual from politically inclined.You need a Deng/Atataurk/LKY true statesmen to actually turn India around to its actual potential not populist leaders and nonsense propaganda.Serious business and trade structural reforms are painful but necessary but nothing major has been done apart from superficial crowd pleasing propaganda!

no one will be able to help india. india is a federal syatem. any strong leader will face resistance from states. all the 3 you mentioned held unlimited power to change whatever they wanted. in india modi wanted to change a lot but faced backlash from courts, state governments and religious/ social groups. these things cant be handled without social and cultural unity which is what modi is trying to achieve now.

[@papubhuyan]

Cherry picked data. Economic growth should not depend only on exports. Share of Indian exports in world has increased a lot btw when world economy is in poor condition.

[@ranjanshaw5518]

Instead of showing growth in absolute terms, you are showing growth per GDP Since india is world's fastest growing GDP it denominator is high so a 6% or 7% growth in production, if taken as a percentage of GDP(which grew 7-8%), will show a lower percentage This will give an impression that there's a shrinkage of production. This not a correct way of analyzing

[@rameshradhakrishnan4808]

@Sharad Raghavan. Expected a more nuanced analysis. Manufacturing % share vs value, Impact of COVID/2 wars on our Exim figures, MII was announced in 2014, Physical infra is not created by magic wand in a jiffy, actual investments started post PLIs (2020-21) etc., .

The china plus one and russia Ukraine have seriously caused the manufacturing to come to india. I think it will get better with time however there are many drawbacks in the scheme that focuses on large scale industries and not traditional manufacturing or the MSME sectors. Successes are there but government should seriously fix downside if the government if manufacturing is to seriously take off and help a lot of poor and lower middle class graduate to the middle class.

[@sayidaskamath4690]

Land reforms, labour reforms and democracy , federal structure is not allowing tough decisions from Govt in manufacturing. We need collaboration with great manufacturing companies to train 20-30 million workforce similarly like 1998 IT boom. Government should provide incentives for private participation in skill set training in accordance with global standards training should provide practical innovative thinking with proven projects implementation

[@rks2366]

In era of artificial intelligence and robotics it's not easy to remain employment in manufacturing. Only few sector data can't describe it's failure. India own demand is fulfilled by it's domestic supply it should also be considered it's success. Service sector has also replaced some manufacturing sector contribution which also shows more skilled quality of Indian. In high density population of country who has limited natural resources can't perform as much as China .

These guys have mastered the art of misrepresenting the data. They are discussing the growth of manufacturing sector with respect to only GDP, which is absolute bullshit. Because there are other sectors such as services/software which have grown exponentially during and post pandemic phase. So the contribution of manufacturing sector in GDP and exports looks low as other sectors have grown faster. I dare you to show below charts to get the correct picture. 1. Year on year percentage growth of manufacturing sector from 2004-2014 in comparison with 2014 to 2024. 2. Year on year percentage growth in exports of manufacturing sector from 2004-2014 in comparison with 2014 to 2024. 3. Jobs generated yearly by manufacturing sector from 2004-2014 in comparison with 2014-2024. The Print, Wire, Scroll, The Quint kabhi nahi sudharenge.
