Envisioning India 2050

“The best way to predict the future is to create it”
- Abraham Lincoln

Our vision of India’s future should be both comprehensive and harmonious. It must encompass all the
myriad aspects that constitute the life of the country and its people. It must balance and synthesize all the
divergent views and forces that combine, compete and unite in their pursuit of self-fulfilment. It must be
based on an objective assessment of facts and a realistic appraisal of possibilities, yet it must rise beyond
the limitation of past trends, immediate preoccupations and pressing challenges to perceive the emerging
opportunities and discover the concealed potentials. Our vision should serve as a signpost alerting us to
unresolved and impending problems that demand our attention as well as to the range of options and
critical choices we have to make in order to maximize our future accomplishments.
Incorporating the theme of this session’s magazine the vision of India’s future should serve to awaken
in all of us a greater awareness of the essential cultural and spiritual strengths which are the bedrock
of our past achievements and the foundations of our future accomplishments. The forms of tradition
must change, but knowledge of its essence is our greatest endowment. The vision should awaken in us
an unswerving confidence in ourselves, a staunch reliance on our own capacities as a nation and an
unshakeable determination to realize our full potential. A true vision cannot be a static written statement.
It must be born and emerge as a living and dynamic reality in the minds and hearts of the people and their
leaders - ever constant and persistent, yet ever adaptive and responsive to rapidly changing conditions.
Best wishes
