Gone are the days when ten rupees is good enough to have a decent food outside.Today, Money is gradually losing its value.Economists cite it as an Inflationary trend.Thanks God, for it's far better than countries like Zimbabwe.
"India is Shining" and this feel good factor is certainly there.Asian Market is emerging with China and India as engines of growth.Some believe, this economic growth will downfilter and reach the lower strata of the society.
We are witnessing a huge transformation towards market economy.Is this fortunate or unfortunate is yet to undergo a litmus test.The new global strategy of liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation is yet to prove its vantage.
There is an opportunity cum challenge in this new strategy.Prosperity or poverty became a matter of probability.Middle class section who formed a majority in the past are forced in some way to the extremes.
The Status of agriculture and its associated sector leaves me poignant.Howsoever efforts our government makes in lifting this sector remains inadequate.The continuation of farmers suicide in many parts of our country, along with the side by side prevailing rising corporate world is a rare combination.
My only apprehension is that this economic growth should be all inclusive.The benefits of this growth should be reaped by everyone.Gradual growth along with distributive justice is preferable than fast growth unaccompanied by socio economic development.The divides that are existing should sway away to pave way for a seamless world.Or else, whatever economic growth reached so far will got infested by violence caused by social divide.
Darwin's theory, "Only fittest of the fit will survive" is more relevant even today.
