LIVE: From Scarcity to Superpower: Story of India's Economic Rise | Palki Sharma | Independence Day

On August 15th, 1947, India woke up to freedom—but also to famine, poverty, and broken systems. The British left behind a hollowed economy. From being the "Golden Bird" of global trade, India was reduced to 4% of the world’s GDP. Yet, in just 77 years, it has emerged as the world’s fourth-largest economy. How did this happen? Ahead of this Independence Day, Palki Sharma traces India’s extraordinary economic journey on the India Story.
