With the China+1 policy being implemented by many MNCs, India really stood a chance of attracting them to set up manufacturing plants in India. But India lost it to Vietnam and other competitors.
India definitely has the required potential, but the time is being wasted in politics and other things.
In fact, I just realised that, my generation is the exact generation that The States had after WWII. That generation which believes in living to fullest, rather than saving for the future, for the majority of their income. That generation where the young are the customers, rather than the actual earners.
It took freaking ~75 years for India to reach here. That is a really really long time. It literally means that we are about 70 to 75 years from becoming The States in the present.
Of course, with social media and globalisation, this process will definitely get accelerated to just 25 to 30 years. But still, even that is a long time.
Right now, India is just a market for FDIs and others to make money. I don't see it becoming a superpower anytime soon.
It is still a good country though, I am its citizen, and I am proud of it.
It is just, the female safety problem should get solved. And we are quite good! As a guy, it worries me. Multiple times.
There are amazing Indian users here as well. I am lucky I guess. I feel lucky at the least.
@Leopard23 You should check the Data of India with World Bank or IMF or from a very Trusted Source
However 35 % Population of India is Muslims and you know hot filthy & Orthodox Muslims are? same as Pakistan and Afghanistan
Still India Managed to become, 5th Largest Economy of the world and India's Military is 4th Strongest in World... check it on Google !
Be anything but a radical person. You are not open for discussion then.
@leopard23 @the_shadow_dweller You don't beg or request to become a Superpower... Right? You just make your Place, India is on the same Path where USA was in 1950's and Where Russia was in 1960"s and where China was in 1990"s
So by 2050, India must be a 4th Superpower after USA, Russia, China and Indeed even in 2023... India is already Most Powerful 4th Country on World's Map !!
India does have the 5th largest economy but its completely dependent on cheap labor, it has modernised its industry. Automation is making a lot of labor jobs obsolete. We are starting to see a lot of industry return to the west that b4 was given out to China and India because a robot can do the exact same thing better for much less. Look after the huge car factories in south korea, a handful of workers overseeing robots. Where does the money the Indian economy generates end up? It doesn't end up invested in infrastructure or modernised of industry it ends up in the hands of a small minority who hoard it. You might point at how India has more millionaires and billionaires than anywhere else but that really illustrates the extremeness of the poverty gap in India where a billionaire has a skyscraper as his home built in a slum.
You might brag with pride about indians in America or elsewhere earning big in STEM fields and as doctors etc but that just means the US is creaming off India's best and brightest who never return home with their money except to find a wife
India is number 5 according to this Indian publication, its list russiz as number 2 so not too accurate www.businessinsider.in/.../51930339.cms
But India in fact is not. They certainly have the numbers but are seriously lacking in modern equipment and training.
@Leopard23 Your are right. This is the reality. The Indian people you see in America just happen to have Indian citizenship. They are American in every other sense.
I call my country, the world's biggest exporter of fine brains.
I am not saying it is a bad country. But it is what it is. And I may become one of those brains in search for peace and quiet and a better life style.
@Leopard23 Cool Down... Go to Google and check world top 10 Economy of the World and you will see India on 5th position, Earlier Britan was on number 5th but Now india has surpassed UK...
https://www.populationu.com/gen/countries-by-gdp
@leopard23 or AT least check Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)
@leopard23 See, India have 1.4 billion people and I think we should expel 35 %Population of Extremist Muslims from India, they are burden on us... Hindu are Progressive and open minded but Muslims are beget and orthodox and you can see what they are doing in Syeria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan and in Muslim African countries
The 4th power clearly is and common sense dictates it. This is India as it is the balancing force in Asia matching and surpassing China in population. Economically, India is already a powerhouse.
—-Defense as they possess modern weaponry from both America and Russia.
Sum point:. As Russia and China support one another in Europe and Asia conquests last seen in 1970s…
USA as in NATO and Muslim worlds of the Baltic States will be called upon to handle the Russian European threat as well as relevant Chinese threats in the Northern Hemisphere.
India, Japan, South Korea and other freedom loving Asian states will be called upon to fight against Chinese aggression in SE Asia and the whole of the continent…. Asian world.
why the hell would brazil or india be anywhere close to a superpower?
more likely its china that is gonna be world superpower
@haha456 Madam, I said and asked about 3rd Country... Right? Oh... Sorry, you must be American or european... noi issues, please keep sleeping !
India is doing pretty good despite having a bad history of colonisation but isn't aggressive in its approach like China.
I agree. But the internal politics are nothing short of a movie plot! Even more spicy, if nothing.
I firmly believe that some degree of stability is needed to focus on things that can actually contribute to progress that is to be represented on global stage.
@The_Shadow_Dweller Yes, they are dividing people based on religion.

*India. They will supplant the USA and we will be their "Germany" as it was for us decades. No, I don't mean Nazi's.
*China is a shooting star. They will start a war to preserve themselves but they will fail.
*Japan is fading, committing demographic suicide. Like China
*The EU has no ambition. The love their Brie and white wine. And they forgot to have children.
*Brazil will grow but is hampered by language and demographics. They will emerge farther but never be a super power.
*South Korea parallels Japan.
*The USA will sunset like Rome unless Patriots unlock their gun safes and rise up. 50/50 that they will.
Iran and Turkey will go nowhere.
@leopard23 You should read his views ! Every one Knows who will be the Next Super Power by 2050
None. Unless somehow a massive war happens which we all just come out dandy except countries are now just in different levels of power, any country cannot just surpass the already super powers leading the world kinda the point. Otherwise a Super power would be useless. In the past Empires fell all the time but that's thanks to war and instability these days no one wants to commit to that cause nukes exist, and instability is unlikely.
So the only way to lead these days is to be the producer aka China, the supplier aka Russia, the demander aka USA. Countries are winning capitalism and the thing about capitalism is the rich will only get richer meanwhile the poor stay poor.
Brazil for example ain't just gonna become modernised wealthy country within the next 20 years nvm a super power it's just gonna stay more or less the same. Same way USA has always been wealthy.
3. The European Union. Because taken as a whole it has a larger potential GDP than the US though it lacks oil/gas.
1. India has a long way to go. People still shit in the streets in India. Its infrastructure is in shit. Too much wealth at the top. It has potential.
2. Japan is in decline.
4. Brazil is not much better than India.
5. South Korea has some potential.
The US is the world's only super power. The rest are regional powers like Russia or China.
@leopard23 I am not Sure about Brazil or Nigeria ( how much Potential they have ) but India Surpassed British Economy and Now Indian's economy is larger than British, Indian's Army is much stronger than Britan and even British PM Rishi Sunak a Hindu and an from Indian Origin
Okay, France is a close friend of India and India will surpass Germany in Next 5 years... So who left in Europe? Tiny countries, whom you can't see in World Map with out Microscope? 😂🤣🤣😂
@leopard23 Also you can give your opinion on this question as well
Neal Mohan for YouTube: Why top tech giants are hiring Indian-origin CEOs? ↗
Brazil has basically all the same resources and potential the US had, the difference is the mass corruption and Oligarchal system. When we had our independence we got rid of the aristocrats, in their revolution the aristocrats took control.
The Indian Army on paper is larger but its much less well equipped and trained.
There are probably 2 million indians in Britain who are doing quite well and probably have no intention of ever returning to India, so as Britain is a very free and equal society its not surprising they have an Indian PM. 2 million is like the population of many small countries, think Ireland has only about 4-5 million people their prime minister is a gay Indian called Leo Varadkar.
Taken as a whole the EU is a probably the largest economy in the world. Germany has massive industrial capacity, France is probably the 2nd strongest military in the world and a major exporter of military arms.
GDP of the EU is $16.6 trillion, GDP of India is India: $2.66 trillion, GDP of Britain is $2.67. And that is with providing better housing, job conditions, wages healthcare, household plumbing, public toilets, running water, electricity etc which India struggles with.
The GDP of Germany and France goes into investing in other EU member states building infrastructure which will pay off in the long run for all.
@leopard23 You forget ALWAYS... what you himself saying, Remember India have over 1.4 Billion people and its Population is much greater than entire Europe + USA + Russia... So to see a significant change like a Superpower it takes lots of efforts... USA has only 333 Million People and India have 1 billion more Pople than US but still US have Home less people and Unemployed People there? Right?
@leopard23 Those Indians who are in UK or USA getting easy $$$ So they want to enjoy their lives and don't want to work hard in India to make it the Greatest Country !
You know many CEO's of Top Tech companies of USA have Indian's CEOS
India has more people yet a lower GDP than Germany who hasn't a adapter of the Indian population. The Indian economy is at 99% the EU economy isn't even trying. India will never become a superpower because all the money the economy makes ends up in the hands of a tiny minority who build skyscrapers to live in.
@leopard23 Cry boy Cry... India will Surpass German's economy in Next 5 years and with in 10 years India will be on 3rd Position, Even IMF and World Bank Predicts... I can understand how pathetic you are feeling when Chinese and Inidan are becoming No # 1 ... from 2050 onwards there will be only 2 Superpowers...
1. China ( Will Replace to USA )
2. India ( Will Replace to Russia )
@leopard23 Now Leave about British PM Rishi Sunak, US President Joe Biden always desperate to meet Indian's PM Modi ( He know India is the Next Boss of the World )

And How much Putin wants India? see below
https://youtu.be/jVnr8D6OCsk
Yes they used to say India would be a super power by 2020
India may overtake German GDP with Germanys tiny 83 million population but Germany is part of the EU that that with its 400 million population has a $16.6 trillion GDP which is like 75% more than india's tiny little $2.6 trillion GDP package 🤏🤣. The European Union is made up of states just like India. Why not compare an Indian state such as Uttar Pradesh to Germany.
@leopard23 Hahaha Russia got broken in 1991 and its very weak Now, before 1991 Russia always used to fuck ass of Americans 🤣
India Ripped Pakistan in 1971 War and made a New Country which is Bangladesh Now... Even US could not split a Country in a war, US got fucked by Tiny County Vietnam in 1967 War, US had ton Run away from Afghanistan and Taliban took over The Reime
And Even Tiny Country North Korea always Threatens USA 🤣
Biden knows US is getting old and weak like himself, So US needs India to fight Against Mighty China
Chinese and Indians are Neighbours and we will be Boss of the world. 😍😎
@leopard23 We will kick out Sister's fuckers Muslims ( those Muslims fuck their own cousin sisters so we call them sister fuckers ) and their Prophet Muhamed was a Pedophile So We need to clean the Mess... Pakistan is dying Hungry and has become bankrupt as they are Stupid Muslims 🤣
The soviet union got broken because we beat them in the cold war.
Beating Pakistan is nothing to pat yourself on the back for, don't think an Arab Army has won a war in 300 years..
Us Casualties in the Vietnam war were tiny and the cost to Vietnam was huge. In the end we made a mistake backing the south Vietnamese government. The Taliban ran away in 2001 and waited 20 years until the US military left, fighting was minimal and we went there to destroy alqueda.
If you want to talk about wars. How about the handful of tea drinking redcoats that conquered the Indian people and made them their bitches. You might beat the British in cricket but indian men know who their masters are.
@leopard23 Britan is nothing Infront India, They ate shrinking and will end up like Pakistan is dying hungry and bankrupt... yeah but Now Since Rishi Sunak is UK's PM and he is Hindu So UK have some hope !
Can you google : how much Causality US had in Vietnam war?
How many American soldiers died in the Vietnam War?
The Vietnam Conflict Extract Data File of the Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS) Extract Files contains records of 58,220 U. S. military fatal casualties of the Vietnam War.23-Aug-2022
Tiny and uneducated Tribes from Vietnam killed nearly 60,000 Solders of Super Power America in Vietnam war... Go boy go, Brag and Fart in Hollywood movies only 😂🤣
Britain will always be jndia's master.
Look up Vietnamese casualties. The Vietnamese werent like the weak indians they fought their colonisers. In the same period as the Vietnam war, don't forget thst during the Vietnam war the Indian government came to the US with their begging bowl for food. Begging is a major source of employment in India, best beggers in the world.
@leopard23 India Never begs, But World Know how cunning is US, during a Drought in 1960's US helped India with Substandard wheat supply... Right?
Now India is 2nd Largest wheat and Rice Producer in The World and No #1 In Milk Production ( Google it to know it )
Boy, Just a week Ago India signed a Deal with US & France... its for Purchasing 500 Aircraft from Boeing and Airbus company and Its cost $100 billion dollars
You know what US president Biden said : he thanked India for this deal as This will create 1 Million Jobs in USA in 44 states ( Go Google it ) ... Same Gratitude Shown by French President and UK PM
We are Super Power even in 2023
https://youtu.be/sdGwtHitUD0
Yeah that's called begging. India is famous for its beggers wher it be mohdi or Indian women. In the US and EU farmers are paid not to grow crops, in India soil erosion is a serious problem as is toxic waste.
If India was ever going to be a super power it would be able to produce its own aircraft. So weak.
@leopard23 Boy, we gave 1 Million jobs to your unemployed People, and your President Jo biden admitting it... So who is Poor?
America is " 0 " with out help of India... We even Run USA apart from UK
You Guys are Dumb ass, you have Poor and Pathetic IQ, So you don't get high Tech Job and that's why you cry when you hear about India 🤣😂
@leopard23 it will be cheaper to buy from Boeing and Airbus instead of making it here in India
We already Built our Own Aircraft Carrier " Vikrant " So making a Commercial jet is not a big deal but Boeing and Airbus can make it on a Low cost !
Similarly, Britan could not send its any satellite in space by its own? did you know?
India's space Agency sends all the satellite of UK in space ! ( Google it )
https://youtu.be/Sbpdtq0Jvog
Cheaper because to buy foreign aircraft because it would be like chimps trying to figure out how to light a fire.
The Aircraft Carrier Vikrant, you'd need four of them to match a single us carrier. Its also powered by engines made in the US.
The Indian space agency tried to land on the moon but hit it. That's when indians were claiming India would be a super power by 2020.
@leopard23 Lol ! India is only Country who reached on Mars on its first attempt? Right?
Go Google it... US failed in its First attempt and China failed 2-3 times but ISRO Reached on Mars in its First attempt and even 1/10 of the Cost of NASA
That's why we will be SuperPower by 20250

Correct... Bro 🎄🎁✨🎉✨
Why didn’t you list China? They have been very aggressive. But also they are run by a brutal communist dictatorship. That government structure doesn’t historically last forever because civilian tensions build up. However they have been very aggressive lately both commercially and militarily.
@Venera314 do’h. Thanks for pointing that out. Feel silly that I scanned his question too quick.
Question was who will be the next super power. It doesn't include current super powers.
I say it will be Mexico. The Cartels are getting insanely rich smuggling fenyanyl and sex slaves into the US. They are already better equipped than the Border Patrol and the DEA. They will end up buying California after they file for bankruptcy
Do I have to choose from one of those? Because I wouldn't bet my money on any of those honestly. The EU probably won't even exist in 20 years. Some of the other countries had potential but messed it up.
I would bet more on Israel or the UK, honestly. Maybe even Turkey, but I'm leaning more towards Israel
Why not Nepal or Bhutan or Maldives? 🤣
I know Most American Guys can't afford education and 50 % American don't do graduation as its very costly but your Knowledge is very poor about GDP of the Countries ! I wish American could get better education !
Do you seriously want me to answer that?
Oh are you referring to "superpowerness" in terms of GDP? You should've specified that. "Superpower" can mean many things.
My education is just fine, thank you very much. I just don't give a shit about GDP or foreign economics. They are of absolute zero importance or interest to me.
Out of your list given it will be India with Brazil coming in second. A nation is only as strong as its demographics. Japan, EU, USA and every other first world nation has a population issue. Less younger generations and more older generations in need of support.
Demographics, specifically age makes this question true regardless of whether you look at it through militaristic or economic perspectives.
Japan is already building their military numbers back up so is Germany so I pick 3.
India has a mass population as great as China now yet still a broke country & Brazil is also broke so I don't see them coming ip. any time soon.
South Korea has potential but they need to take out North Korea first.
Hopefully none of them. The age of 'superpowers' should come to an end this century, because old-fashioned 19th century-style imperialism isn't something that we should hang on to.
Indian girls, particularly those from gujarat, are very gorgeous. Smart, witty, and divine culinary skills. That alone makes them a super power lol
India will be. Iran and Vietnam could be, but will probably be regional powers, as will Nigeria, Brazil and the Philippines.
Taliban ruled Afghanistan if the American government keeps funding them like Bush and Biden..
im surprised india is on this list- (im indian)
Neither, these countries are collapsing because of their imperialism
I suppose any if it has a massive technological jump.
The US is the only true superpower, the last year has shown that Russia and China do not fit the bill.
Conservative nationalist
But what you're saying is simply not true and even laughable. A superpower with a homeless crisis, unsecured borders, a demented president and drag queens in the federal government. Yep. Very super.
I'm a Conserative myself, but I don't believe in all this "America Number 1" bullshit.
What's YOUR criteria then?
Yes, that's what I assumed it was too. The other guy claims it's some GDP shit. To be completely honest, I don't think the U. S. currently has the capability to defend itself and its on multiple fronts if a world war were to break out.
Yeah, it's declining with the current administration. But it seems like the US can't survive without getting involved in some sort of war
India
Japan/China's population isn't going to help it achieve anything
Thanks
china will be a super power in about 30 years. The EU may collapse one day in the future.
We will be swimming of plastic bottles and we will have to move to the top of the mountain soon after sea level up.
I'm going to say Japan
Although 80 % Research and data analysis Predicts that India will be Next Super Power by 2050 and it will be 2nd Largest Economy Surpassing USA, As if 2023 India is 5th Largest Economy and 4th Strongest Army in the World !
That's by 2050
At the rate they're going, I doubt it though
@KostasKouvalis US, France, UK, Russia ( Presidents ) already deem India a Future superpower, India's GDP growth is highest in World, Currently India is 5th largest Economy of the World and 4th strongest Military of the World... how long will it take to them to become No # 1 ?
Just 20-30 years
https://youtu.be/jdbRE-9ltiA
Good for them
As of now it’s China so China has more potentials
These are, China, Japan, and South Korea !
China is already a (S ) Power
Oh yeah! Then I go with S. Korea !!
Are you Vegetarian? don't you eat Chicken? 🎭
I am! And I don’t eat it!
