India Will Be USD 5-Trillion Economy By End Of 2025, Claims Amit Shah

Dehradun: Union Home Minister Amit Shah claimed on Saturday that India will become a USD 5 trillion economy by the end of 2025.

Addressing the valedictory session of Uttarakhand Global Investors Summit here, the Home Minister said India has grown exponentially on every front over the past one decade due to the far-sighted and visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, reported PTI.

“The world is looking to India with hope today. Between 2014 and 2023, India has risen from 11th to the fifth biggest economy in the world. Never before did the country make so big a leap during 75 years of Independence,” he said.

Shah claimed that India’s per capita income has doubled in the last 10 years, adding that 13-and-a-half crore people have come out of poverty during the period.

“The IMF described India as a bright spot in a dark zone. Morgan Stanley said by 2027, India will emerge as the third-largest economy in the world, forging ahead of Japan and Germany. These are good signs. India’s time has arrived,” he noted.

Shah remarked that Modi is leading the movement for climate change, trying to impart pace to the world’s slow GDP growth through the Make in India programme, besides leading the campaign for a terror-free world.
