Question
Why do you think India is now considered as an important centre of power?
Solution
In the 21st century India is being seen as an important emerging global power-
- The economic, cultural and strategic position of the country with a population of more than 135 crores is very strong.
- From a strategic perspective, the military of India is self-sufficient with indigenous nuclear technology, making it another nuclear power.
- From an economic perspective, targeting the goal of a $5 trillion economy, a competitive huge market, and ancient inclusive culture with 200 million people of Indian diaspora spreading across the globe impart distinct meaning and salience to India as a new centre of power in the 21st century.
