How could the push for next-generation reforms affect the parliament?
Parliament may need to pass legislation to address land reforms and ease doing business The analysis of India's economic transformation emphasizes that resolving domestic policy bottlenecks is pivotal for achieving the 'Viksit Bharat' vision by 2047. Specifically, economists assert that comprehensive land reforms and improving the ease of doing business are critical for India's next phase of growth. Since these reforms require changes to existing laws or the creation of new policy frameworks, the parliament would need to act to facilitate the necessary land acquisition and streamline the investment environment.

Madras School of Economics analyzed India's economic transformation, noting that long-duration structural shifts, or megatrends, are reshaping how the nation consumes and does business. Economists asserted that resolving domestic policy bottlenecks, particularly through comprehensive land reforms and enhancing the ease of doing business, is pivotal for Narendra Modi's next-generation reforms. Separately, a fund tracking these structural changes reported 18.21% annualised returns for its Direct Growth plan over three years.

- Addressing gaps in land records is crucial for easing land acquisition, which is vital for increasing manufacturing's share of GDP to 25 per cent by 2035.rediff.com
- Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced fiscal support to states for three years for land-related reforms, including land administration, planning and management, urban planning, land usage and building bylaws.rediff.com
Why it matters
The ability of India to achieve its goal of becoming a developed economy by 2047 relies heavily on sustained 8 per cent annual GDP growth. This growth is contingent on addressing structural issues like land acquisition and improving the business environment, which are currently seen as major policy bottlenecks.
If the parliament is slow to enact the necessary legislative changes, the government's push for next-generation reforms could stall. This would limit the country's ability to meet its manufacturing targets and slow the pace of economic transformation identified by institutions like the Madras School of Economics.
