Dr. R Balasubramaniam, Member (HR), Capacity Building Commission, delivered a distinguished address at "Artha Chakra" - the Annual Economic Conclave of the Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics on 13 February 2025. Speaking under the theme - “India @ $10 Trillion: Ten Drivers, Ten Directions, The Next Orbit,” he highlighted State Capacity as the most critical enabler of India’s $10 trillion aspiration. In a rapidly evolving global landscape, he emphasized that strengthening governance through trust-based systems, civil service reforms, and Mission Karmayogi can transform economic ambition into achievable outcomes—firmly aligning the $10 trillion vision with the broader goal of Viksit Bharat @2047. Building capable institutions today is foundational to securing India’s next orbit of growth.
