India's Viksit Bharat 2047 vision needs granular regional growth
A granular approach to growth and development · thehindubusinessline.com

India is a big country with many different kinds of places.

Some places have mines, some have farms, and some have factories.

The government wants India to be a developed country by the year 2047.

To do that, it needs to help each region grow in its own way.

Right now, the government mostly looks at the whole country or whole states.

But two districts in the same state can be very different.

So the government is starting to look at smaller areas, like districts and cities.

In June, it made a new way to measure how each district's economy is doing.

The budget also wants to help cities and the areas around them work together.

People who live and work in a place often know what it needs best.

So the article says we should listen to them too.

By helping every region grow, India can become a strong and developed country by 2047.
