The country―the largest democracy in the world―is generally considered an emerging power due to its abundant natural resources, large and stable population, policy of free-market economics, rapid advancements in science and technology, rule of law and culture of peace. Even with all these factors seeming to be in favour, India still has to overcome major challenges such as regional and societal income disparities, moving up the value chain towards greater innovation, and bringing about an overhaul in its manner of governance for the nation to prosper and actually step into the future.
