South Asia Dark truth about Indian economy

[Krishna with Flute]

All lies, all made up propaganda by Indian media. Fact checks make every claim fall apart.

What else you can write? I quoted IMF, I quoted World Bank, I quoted renowned economist. What you responded with? All propaganda. That is called a loser.

'Exceedingly well' karke yeh haal hai tumhara mulk ko??

If this is the best Modi ji can do - then RN Bhaskar Saab was right, Viksit (developed) Bharat) is a joke.

Too funny...

Exceedingly well means 40 million houses to poor. Food support to all poor. Gas connection to all. Electricity to all. Up to 10 lakh free medical to 550 million people. Small finance loan to 100 million people. Elemination of hunger poverty. 37 k.m highway construction every day. 1 government clinic in 15 k.m. from any place of state in many state like Gujarat. Free meal to all government school for students in primary schools. Which other country in the world can do that? I am talking about comparison with developed nations only. Don't consider BD, Pakistan, somalia for comparison.

India is also a large food importer and imported $33 Billion worth of food in 2023 (last statistic available).

India faces a significant paradox where it imports essential food items while having a large population suffering from hunger (far worse situation than Sub Saharan Africa, as described by Dr. RN Bhaskar from India which I have highlighted earlier in this thread).

Despite being one of the largest food producers, around 190 million people in India are undernourished, highlighting the inefficiencies in food distribution and access within the country.

First sentance of the article states the 33BN usd import of farm products. I am sure that you don't understand the difference between farm products and food grain. Do you? We have exported more than half of world's total rece export and same way other food products. A major chunk of that figure is furniture timber. Our food import is only confined to vegetables oil. Rest are non food items including some fibers, timber etc. Your posting without understanding the meaning of sentance and your habit of searching some title on Google and posting it without reading it always put you in trouble.

You are repeating this again and again. This has been answered in detail with many references of World Bank and IMF reports.

I have been hearing about this 'plan' for the last thirty years.

In that time, China became a developed country and a leader in Solar energy, EV and hydrogen tech while India remained worse than Bangladesh. RIP logic and truth.

We have surpassed all our goals of renewable energy till date. What we have achieved till date and in recent past is exceedingly well. Read bellow article and count how many times the India's renewable energy is to total electricity generation of BD.

India’s Renewable Energy Revolution​

Posted On: 22 JAN 2025 11:36AM by PIB Delhi

As India accelerates its transition towards a sustainable future, its renewable energy (RE) sector has witnessed unprecedented growth. In 2024, the country made significant strides in solar and wind energy installations, policy advancements, and infrastructural improvements, setting the stage for ambitious targets in 2025. With a commitment to achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based energy capacity by 2030, India is emerging as a global leader in clean energy. As on 20th Jan 2025, India’s total non-fossil fuel based energy capacity has reached 217.62 GW.

The year 2024 saw a record-breaking 24.5 GW of solar capacity and 3.4 GW of wind capacity added, reflecting a more than twofold increase in solar installations and a 21% rise in wind installations compared to 2023. This surge was driven by government incentives, policy reforms, and increased investments in domestic solar and wind turbine manufacturing. Solar energy remained the dominant contributor to India’s renewable energy growth, accounting for 47% of the total installed renewable energy capacity. Last year saw the installation of 18.5 GW of utility-scale solar capacity, a nearly 2.8x increase compared to 2023. Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu emerged as the top-performing states, contributing 71% of India’s total utility-scale solar installations.

The rooftop solar sector also experienced significant growth in 2024, with 4.59 GW of new capacity installed, marking a 53% increase from the year 2023. The PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, launched in 2024, played a crucial role in this expansion, facilitating 7 lakh rooftop solar installations within ten months. Additionally, the off-grid solar segment recorded a 182% increase, adding 1.48 GW in 2024, furthering India's energy access goals in rural areas.

India added 3.4 GW of new wind capacity in 2024, with Gujarat (1,250 MW), Karnataka (1,135 MW), and Tamil Nadu (980 MW) leading the way. These states accounted for 98% of the new wind capacity additions, highlighting their continued dominance in wind power generation.

The Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) played a pivotal role in fostering RE growth through policy interventions and financial support. Key highlights include:

• Green Hydrogen Push: The government actively pursued the development of green hydrogen policies to reduce costs and attract investments in this emerging sector.
• Manufacturing Expansion: Domestic solar PV and wind turbine manufacturing were scaled up, supporting India’s ambition to become a global RE manufacturing hub.
• Grid Infrastructure Development: The MNRE proposed significant investments in inter-state transmission systems to evacuate power from renewable-rich states like Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Madhya Pradesh.

India’s renewable energy sector is on a transformative journey, with 2024 marking a year of record capacity additions and policy advancements. As the country moves into 2025, addressing regulatory, financial, and infrastructural challenges will be crucial. With continued policy support, increased investment, and a focus on emerging technologies, India is well-positioned to achieve its ambitious renewable energy targets and solidify its status as a global leader in the clean energy transition.

By the way Billu, India 's renewable energy is more than 4 times the BD's total electricity generation. We added more renewable energy last year than total electricity generation capacity of BD last year. Is it good enough @Bilal9 ?

There are ten times bhookhey, nangey aur natey Indians bhi us-taraf - compared to Bangladesh population. No one (much less Modi) cares about them in India. Yeh hai India! :-(

Color me impressed/depressed either way.....

Exactly, Now analyze what you wrote. It is crude oil which is a natural resource and it consumes big part of our import, Second is coal which is also a natural resource. Diamont and gold import is an investment not consumption.
Now reduce this from your list and let me know what remains thereafter.

We have big plan on Solar energy, EV and hydrogen. This will help us to reduce Crude oil and coal import. We are rushing in that direction at a very rapid pace. We are self-sufficient in most of the manufactured stuff but because of not sufficient crude oil and coal, lots of our foreign exchange is consumed. It is high on our agenda to meet our energy need from natural resources like solar, wind , EV etc. We are doing it exceedingly well and we have met all our targets well before deadline.

Even if we exclude oil, coal, diamond and gold from the list, India still is depended on other countries for chemicals, pharmaceuticals, rubber, plastics, electronics, and machinery. Peace.
