Vice Chairperson of NITI Aayog, Suman Bery today said that India’s ascent from the “Fragile Five” to the fastest-growing major economy has lessons for other developing countries. Bery, in an interview to a news agency, after presenting India’s report card at the UN’s High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development yesterday, said, India has its own challenges, and one reason for India’s success is that it has mechanisms to come up with its own solutions. Bery said that the International Monetary Fund has also reiterated India’s position as the fastest-growing economy for this year, continuing the world record for the seventh year in a row. He said, the Indian digital story is fairly well-recognised around the world. He also pointed out the successful model of public-private partnerships in the country. Explaining the contours of Viksit Bharat and the Prime Minister’s vision for India as a developed society by 2047, he said the country has made a promising start, but to become developed much more needs to happen.
