Abstract
Launch of “Make in India” aimed at making India a global manufacturing hub. It was also rolled out with the aim of creating millions of jobs in the country. Government has announced many steps in last one year to improve the business environment by easing processes to do business in the country, and attract foreign investments. If any country needs to grow obviously it is the army of states which is going to play a major role in fighting the battle out. Rajasthan being the largest state in the country has tremendous potential to support “Make in India”. Question arises whether we are looking for development or sustainable economic development. Do we have a productive labor force? Are we in the stage to provide equal healthcare to all so that so called demographic dividend does not become demographic burden in near future? How the allocation of the scarce economic resources in the state can be done? If we are calling for urban infrastructure development, moving towards the concept of smart city, what solutions we have for proper governance? Looking at global climate change problem, can we grow parallel managing our environmental problems? In this discussion paper author tries to identify the key issues and challenges pertaining to Rajasthan to play its vital role as key economic driver.
