Another nationalist thinking it’s all a race until we can introduce to you: the indian desert, all himalaya sand.

They have to beat the UK, Japan, and Germany.

None are economies on the rise (and the UK is doing poorly, they might already have surpassed them).

Wouldn’t be surprised if it eventually happens, but beating all 3 in five years might be a stretch.

EDIT: this is nominal GDP. They will definitely not reach the same GDP per capita anytime soon.

“We must go forward, not backward. Upward, not forward. And always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!”

Aaaaaaahahahahaha sure

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Wearing a flowing, multi-colored turban, Modi addressed the country from New Delhi’s 17th century Mughal-era Red Fort, saying his government had lifted over 130 million people out of poverty and that India’s growing prosperity was an opportunity for the world.

His statement comes after reports last year from S&P Global and Morgan Stanley forecast that India’s economy would overtake Japan and Germany’s to become the world’s third largest by 2030.

They said India’s economic boom will be driven by offshoring, investment in manufacturing, growing digital infrastructure and energy transition.

We are bringing the promise of stability to the world,” he said, adding that all eyes would be on India as it hosts the G-20 Summit in New Delhi next month.

The prime minister also reiterated calls for peace in the northeastern state of Manipur, where a near civil war has raged for months and killed over 150 people.

Since clashes between two dominant ethnic groups erupted in early May, residents in Manipur have protested against the state government, ruled by Modi’s party, and called for the firing of its chief minister.

I’m a bot and I’m open source!

If you believe that then I have a bridge to sell to you.

India may become the third largest economy by 2030, overtaking Japan and Germany
