India’s development trajectory is unfolding amid a rapidly evolving geopolitical and geoeconomic environment marked by global power shifts, supply chain realignments, technological disruption and climate stress. In this context, governance has emerged as the decisive factor shaping sustainable, resilient and inclusive growth.
Domestically, India’s federal paradigm is undergoing a significant transformation, with states assuming a more strategic role in driving economic outcomes. States are increasingly at the forefront of attracting investment, developing infrastructure, skilling, urbanisation, and delivering social services. Competitive federalism is evolving into a collaborative, performance-oriented framework.
India’s journey towards becoming a developed nation will ultimately be determined by how effectively its states govern, innovate and deliver in an increasingly complex global order.

Marking 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in public office, ModiNomics – A Journey of Inclusive Growth offers a definitive account of his governance and economic philosophy. From Jan Dhan to Ujjwala, Swachh Bharat to Digital India, it explores how millions were brought into the mainstream of development with speed and scale.
The book examines both the vision and the outcomes—financial inclusion, welfare delivery, infrastructure, and digital empowerment—that have shaped India’s transformation. It asks the vital question: has Modi delivered on the promise of inclusive growth, and how far has India travelled on this journey?
Accessible yet analytical, this is not only a chronicle of policy innovations but also a verdict on their impact. A compelling read for policymakers, scholars, business leaders, and citizens alike, ModiNomics captures India’s story of ambition, resilience, and inclusive progress under Modi’s leadership.
