Viksit Bharat 2047 Development Forum

Building the Blueprint for Tomorrow:
The Viksit Bharat 2047 Development Forum Launched in Jaipur

Jaipur, Rajasthan | March 15, 2026 — In a landmark event that signals a robust push toward India’s centennial goals, the Viksit Bharat 2047 Development Forum was officially inaugurated at the Rajasthan International Center (RIC). Spearheaded by Prof. (Dr.) Ripu Ranjan Sinha, a globally recognized academician and the newly appointed Union Minister for the Royal Kingdom of Mazibuko, the forum aims to serve as a strategic think-tank and execution catalyst for the Honorable Prime Minister’s vision of a “Developed India” by 2047.

A Visionary Launch for a Sovereign Goal

The launch brought together a diverse cohort of policymakers, educators, and industry leaders to discuss the roadmap for Amrit Kaal. Prof. Sinha, known for his “Red and Green Movement” which synergizes technology (Red) with sustainability (Green), emphasized that achieving a $30 trillion economy requires more than just fiscal policy—it requires a grassroots cultural shift toward innovation.

“Viksit Bharat is not just a government scheme; it is a national character-building exercise. By 2047, we don’t just want to be wealthy; we want to be the global benchmark for sustainable innovation and inclusive governance.” — Prof. Ripu Ranjan Sinha

Key Pillars of the Forum’s Strategy

The forum outlined a comprehensive multi-sectoral approach to support the national mission strategies:

• Knowledge-Based Economy: Transitioning from service-oriented sectors to high-value intellectual property and research-driven industries.
• Sustainability & Green Growth: Aligning with the “Green Movement” to ensure that industrialization does not come at the cost of the environment, targeting net-zero milestones.
• Digital Transformation: Leveraging AI, ICT, and Education 4.0 to bridge the rural-urban divide, a theme Prof. Sinha has championed through his recent literary works.
• Youth Empowerment: Focusing on the 734 million Indians under 30 to transform the “demographic dividend” into a global workforce of innovators.
  

Strategic Objectives for 2047

The Forum’s mission is closely aligned with the core pillars of the Prime Minister’s vision:

Objective Area	Target/Focus
Economic	Supporting the path to a $15,000 – $18,000 per capita income.
Social	Eradicating poverty through tech-enabled financial inclusion.
Governance	Promoting transparent, citizen-centric “Digital First” administration.
Global Role	Positioning India as a Vishwa Mitra (Global Friend) and a hub for global supply chains.

The Road Ahead

The initiation of the forum in Jaipur is the first in a series of planned regional chapters. As the Director General of the Asia Africa Development Council, Prof. Sinha intends to use this forum to foster international collaborations, particularly in the Global South, to exchange technology and sustainable practices.

The event concluded with a call to action for the youth and entrepreneurs of Rajasthan to lead the “Innovation Revolution.” With the Viksit Bharat 2047 Development Forum now active, the transition from a “developing” to a “developed” nation has gained a powerful new engine of strategic growth.
