TASK: -

Assuming that in the year 2020, India came out to be a supreme power of the world, but in 2024

World War III broke out, which lead to the tremendous crash of economies across the globe.

India too was affected by it. In 2027 after UNOs intervention there was a cease fire.

Now that the economy is facing turmoil, Indian army has taken control over the country and haselected one person from your group to act as The President of India and the other two as his/her

advisors to revive back the economy.

Nevertheless, as The President you have to select a maximum of SIX states to invest in with all

possible resources available in those states.

You are required to justify as to why you want to invest in those states and resources available

keeping in view the war factor.

By 2020, India being a super power is of the world, where our economic condition isbetter than any country in the world. Indian currency is now the benchmark currency forall comparisons of other currencies or commodities (traded) in the world. Therefore our

exports have higher returns and we get in imports at a lower price from other countries

of the world.

The GDP growth of our country is the highest in the world, our stock markets have thehighest listed companies in the world (in terms of capitalization and revenues). Indian

Institutions are the once doing the investments outside the country.

With this kind of financial backup, we have the world s most advanced technology andmachinery, and also all the ultra modern weapons and combat automotives. And

therefore we are in a prima position in sense of our warfare, and we therefore have many

countries in the world on our side.

But the world war which broke out in 2024 has affected the economies. The country is

under the control of the military, and even the commerce and trade is controlled by the

military. The war lasts for almost 3 years, and leads to a lot of destruction. As it is the

military rule the president is the highest authoritative power in the country. During the

war period, defense forces- army, navy and the air force are given highest priority in terms

of expenditure. But after the war period again the attention shifts over to the rescue of the

country s citizens, their living and all the commerce and trade of the country.

At this time the revival of the economy is very necessary and thus concentration on the

agricultural sector (to fulfill within the country requirements and also export is necessary).

Then the manufacturing of the various items right from a small hair pin the big machines

have to be concentrated on as there will be demand from within the country and to export

to countries with a friendly treaty with India. As the value of the Indian currency is still


3/38

high, the small exports also will yield revenues and therefore the companies ( as it is a

military role 70% of the heavy industries and 30% of midcap and small scale industries

will be allowed to function), this is because the concentration should be on reviving the

economy by producing what India is rich in producing, and importing the rest for a fast

revival, sometime as against a barter trade even. As we have the high currency value

advantage our imports wil cost lesser than us producing what is easily available outside.

Hence our economy wil start to revive earlier than the other economies, the technology

available should be used in full, to again develop various solutions with software, telecom,

automotives to maintain our systems stable, and provide for the outside world.

So as the President,

We are supposed to concentrate on the revival of the whole country in terms of meeting the

requirements within the country and to export to the outside world to generate revenues for thegovernment. And the government or military government under the President have a maximum

of six states to concentrate on. So to achieve the required objective and to decide with the

investments certain aspects have to be considered: -

1) Agriculture: - Should be concentrated on for within the country requirement, and as it isthe most revenue and employment generating occupation of our country, it will work as a

building block for our counties development. And agricultural exports are another

important way to generate revenues for the government.

2) Naturally available mineral resources: - these are important for manufacturingprocesses within country, production and to export out of India. Therefore a way ofgenerating revenues with naturally available resources.

3) Industries: - industrial growth is the backbone for the growth of an economy of anycountry. So as it is a post war period and as the control is with the military: the heavy

industries ( in the sense only the big players in each sector right from the manufacturing,

the FMCG, the pharma to the automobile industries) get more concentration as they can

fulfill requirements of the population with India and generate revenues from outside. The

big players are taken here because the have to capacity to produce in heavy quantities

which will be subsidized by the government for the country population and exported at

high prices, and generate heavy revenues quickly. Not that the midcap and small scale

will be neglected but government support and subsidies will be given to big players atleast for some of the post war period, where the earnings of these players will also be

shared by the government.

4) Service sector: - Has to concentrated on like for ex: The telecom, software, insurance,banking, insurance sector, etc. for the betterment and revival of the countrys

infrastructure and development after post war period. Such big players have their base

mostly in the metropolitan places of the country.


4/38

5) Military bases: - Army and Air force bases have to be setup in the selected states and anatural port should be available for the naval base, as a precaution against any war

activity, as the possibility still exsits as a world war has just ended.

With all these factors in consideration, the requirements for all the above can be

met where factors like natural water resources, forest resources are available.

So considering all the above factors six states have been chosen which

all more or else all or most of these factors existing there.

Therefore we have chosen the following six States: -

1) Karnataka2) Maharashtra3) Delhi4) Gujrat5)

Andra Pradesh

6) JharkhandInvestments done in these six states:-

Karnataka 20%

Maharashtra 25%

Gujarat 15%

It notonly provides food grains to the people but also provides raw materials for agro-based industries.Unfavourable climatic conditions and soil factors in some areas are major concerns for betteryield.

The various cash crops grown in the state include groundnut, cotton, tobacco (second highestproduction in the country), isabgul, cumin sugarcane, jawar, bajra, rice, wheat, pulses, tur andgram. Recently the farmers of Gujarat have started producing bananas and mangoes in largescale.

Other products include honey, wax and bamboo which are produced in fair quantities in differentforests. The state also produces medicinal herbs and fruits like jamun and guava. Forests alsoyield considerable quantities of teak, khair, sadad, hadariyo, manual bamboos and other goodquality of wood.

Baroda, Surat, Broach, and Kaira are some of the places that contribute to the agriculturalproduction.

The rural economy of Gujarat depends a lot upon animal husbandry and dairying. Gujaratproduced 6.09 million tones of milk and 385 million eggs in the year 2002-03.

Based on climatic conditions Gujarat has been divided into 7 agro-climatic zones which aredescribed below.

Irrigation

Irrigation in Gujarat mostly depends on rain, surface water and ground water sources. Most ofthe rabi crops and all of the summer crops are irrigated. The perennials - sugarcane and bananas -are fully irrigated. However, most of the kharif crops are rain-fed.


26/38

As the rainfall varies considerably from region to region, the ultimate irrigation potential is fromgroundwater and surface water sources. The Sardar Sarovar Narmada Project (39.40 lakhhectares surface water and 29.10 lakh hectares groundwater) irrigates about 68.5 lakh hectares ofland

Economy and Industry

Gujarat is one of the most prosperous states of India owing to its agricultural productivity and industrial

development. The per capita GDP of Gujarat is 2.5 times the countrys average GDP. The state leads the

country in various industrial sectors namely, textiles, engineering, chemicals, petrochemicals, drugs and

pharmaceuticals, dairy, cement and ceramics, gems and jewellery.

In the past few years from 1994 to 2002, Gujarats State Domestic Product (SDP) has been rising

continuously at an average growth rate of 12.4 % per annum. Ahmedabad, the largest city of Gujarat is

also an industrial hub of India. The city is known for its textile mills and pharmaceutical industries. Some

other important industrial centres of the state include Rajkot, Surat, Gandhinagar, Baroda and

Jamnagar.

The state contributes to 21% of the countrys exports and 6.42% of the national GDP at constant prices.

If the decadal growth of performance of some of the Indian states vis--vis other Asian economies with

that of Gujarat are compared, one gets quite an encouraging scenario. The industrial growth of Gujarat

with a figure of 8.52% could be way ahead of many Indian states and other Asian giants like Singapore,

Malaysia and Korea.
