India may never be a super power: LSE study

a welfare state means a failed nation. lesser productivity, ever increasing public debt and low on innovation.
India should not even think about being a welfare nation.

Absolutely right! Happy people are lazy people. Hardest workers are the ones facing the toughest difficulties. This explains why the wealth gap between the increasingly lazy West and the increasingly workaholic East is getting ever so narrow.
 
Plunging the knife into Indian ambitions, the report says:"Still, for all India’s success, its undoubted importance and despite its undisputed potential, there is cause for caution in assessing India’s claim to superpower status. India still faces major developmental challenges. The still-entrenched divisions of caste structure are being compounded by the emergence of new inequalities of wealth stemming from India’s economic success. India’s democracy may have thrived in a manner that few ever expected, but its institutions face profound challenges from embedded nepotism and corruption. India’s economic success continues to come with an environmental cost that is unsustainable."

The report is on the dot. India has the potential to be a superpower just because of the sheer size of the population, but it is nowhere near that point.
 
of course but in near future..may be in 20-25 yrs
You guys are really good at giving out random numbers of when India 'will' be this and that....why don't you say 10-15 years or even shorter?
 
I am scared of India. It already has 1.2 billion population. It might try to take over some countries near it in 30 years when pupulation is about 2 billion and overcramping in cities.
 
Gosh, Why do you even need a Think Tank to figure out India will not be a superpower.

Even I can figure out by using this simple criteria table.
