OMG, you as a journalist still do not get it. 132/190 is not a world order item. Stay put. Try to better the country as well as you can and do not delude yourself and the nation. Please……
An informative essay but the conclusion is vague, What exactly does the author propose that India do, if currently Indian strategies are insufficient to bring it to “great power” status? First India needs to define what this status is and what it entails. What does it mean in the Indian context? Invading and killing, as in the case of the US, or bullying and threatening as with China? This perplexing question needs to be answered first. Looking at India’s past, preventing murderous invasions should be priority number one. As the author contends, the present day universe that we live in is dominated by science and technology. And technological advances cannot happen without money. Without reforming and restructuring the economy to create wealth, India’s fate will become that of a rentier state, for the singular lack of real wealth will cause India to use its scarce resources to buy weapons from others. For wars are dominated by those who produce superior weapons, mostly arising from a wealthy economy. This much is clear. All talk of “great power” status is idle until the point where Indians have created a certain threshold of wealth. Then answers will fall into place, as Indians have shown time and again that they can compete with the best on ideas.
Very informative article – underscores the importance of the economy in power projection. The challenges that face India from an economic sense are not easy to overcome. But until it does, India cannot hope to be a leading power.
