Being fourth in Global GDP rankings means having overtaken Japan, but the reality is so glaring when comparing the living standard and conditions in India and Japan. Any sensible human bean could tell the difference, even those 'dull of mind' and little in age.
India is gloating about its projected high GDP growth of 6.5%, well above China's 4.5% and the Indians are making a song and dance about it. Peel away the false fabric on the surface and many people have commented that India's growth is all centered on the connected Modi cronies like Adani Group and its stilted manufacturing sector, while the growth in the agricultural sector, the 40% contributor to India's GDP is still in the doldrums. Comparisons have been made in reports, and they are saying that the bottom feeders in India have living standards below those of sub-Saharan communities. That says a lot about India's boasts of being fourth or even the sixth largest economy in the world.
