Union Minister Piyush Goyal on September 29 said India will be the pillar of the global economic revival as it exhibited steady growth and emerged as the fastest-growing country among large economies of the world.
Addressing the Bengal Chamber's annual general meeting virtually, he said if all stakeholders of the economy work together with a sense of 'Kartavya bhav' (spirit of duty), the national goal of $30-trillion economy will be achieved by 2047, the year when the country will celebrate 100th anniversary of its independence.
"India is already the fifth largest economy in the world and is turbocharging its growth to become the third largest in the coming years. The Prime Minister's vision is to make India a developed nation by 2047 with an economy size of $30 trillion as we will celebrate our 100th independence in that year," Mr. Goyal, the commerce and industry minister, said.
