This series of discussions underscores India’s growing significance on the global stage. Jaishankar recently spoke at the NDTV World Summit 2024, highlighting predictions from a Goldman Sachs study which stated that India is on track to become the third-largest economy in the world by 2030, with expectations of reaching a USD 52.5 trillion economy by 2075.
He noted, “If one were to predict ahead…by 2075, we would be USD 52.5 trillion economy, we’d be second largest at that point in the world. But, much nearer, short-term prediction is that by 2030, we would probably be the third largest economy.”
Jaishankar further emphasised the burgeoning Indian talent pool and its increasing global importance, stating, “Europe and North America want smooth movement of talent and skills out of India because the country’s demography is disproportionately large.”
He articulated that leadership and attitude are vital qualities that countries should possess, especially in times of crises, citing examples such as the ongoing war in Ukraine and potential natural disasters in the Indian Ocean.
This multifaceted engagement highlights India’s commitment to strengthening its international relationships and contributing to global stability and growth. (ANI)
