Abstract: A complex country such as India whose trajectory has been unique in history compared to Europe or China or the USA, poses the possibility of many scenarios that could emerge in the latter half of the 21st Century. This paper looks at a range of issues from, governance and education to the environment and culture. The paper considers how the past could shape the country in 2050, together with changes in technology, better governance and environmental awareness. The move towards globalization is relentless and the paper indicates the role India could play in world trade, world food production and governance. In the end this is a fairly optimistic view of what could be possibly achieved over the next 38 years.
