India Reborn - Forbes India's Union Budget Special
Analyses the defining moment for India on the World Stage
Tweet-- Set against the backdrop of last week's Union Budget, that's exactly what the special edition of Forbes India, the country's most influential magazine, attempts to do - demystify the Union Budget in terms of what it would exactly mean for a country and an economy poised on the upward journey of unprecedented growth. There are no case studies as to what happens to a society that goes through such rapid changes. But when India steps up her moment of history, it will perhaps offer a once-in-life-time opportunity for researchers and media to chronicle the massive surge.
The latest Forbes India issue does an exhaustive coverage on the biggest challenges that the country would be facing in the years to come. Picking up clues from the budget speech and then drawing attention to four hot-button issues like - agricultural policies; the appalling state of the country's bureaucracy; the state of urban development and India's response to the growing energy challenge. Clearly the road ahead is filled with new opportunities and equally tricky policy potholes and Forbes India picks up through expertise and insight, the four big bets that the government has made, thereby bringing forth to its esteemed readers a complete and discerning view on what would further empower the growth in this country. Each of the sectors - education, homeland security, climate change and roads...and how each of the ministers in charge, are using a new approach to drive his agenda. Also included are "turn-around" tales of two states offer critical lessons - Bihar and Gujarat - a reflection on what good governance and agrarian revolution could do. And a deeply sceptical view of India's future by Investor & Adventure Capitalist Jim Rogers makes the Union Budget Special Edition of Forbes India worth reading.
To hook you on from cover to cover are other stories like the Corporate Account of Carl-Peter Forster's appointment as the new boss of Tata Motors, marking the next stage of the company's globalisation; Nandan Nilekani on his life's philosophy and ofcourse, some interesting must-reads in the "Life section" plus much much more in the latest Forbes India issue.
