Today, we are the fastest growing economy and ifth-largest economy in the world, with a size of US 3 trillion. We will be the third-largest economy in the next three years at USD 5 trillion. Our economy will grow to USD 30 trillion by 2047,” he said.
”We have to be wealth creators, job creators. We have the potential to create millions of jobs. The world is looking at India for digital public infrastructure… 46 per cent of digital transactions in the world take place in our country. We have become self-reliant in the service sector,” he said. The Union education minister said that the New Education Policy was envisioned to create wealth and jobs. Pradhan advised the students to play a constructive role in making the country a mega powerhouse and a driving force of the world.
