CHENNAI: If India is to become a flourishing country, it must address issues like “inequality”, provide access to basic healthcare and education, and offer skills and training to the youth, Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran said here on Saturday.
The top industrialist, speaking at the Global Alumni Meet (GAM2025) of NIT Tiruchirappalli, said the country is uniquely positioned to capitalise on global uncertainties, with some of the major transitions currently underway playing to India’s strengths.
“Things we need to address if we want India to be a flourishing country are inequality—inequality in every sense. In simple terms, the per capita income in southern states is four times that of the eastern and northern states. We need to fix this inequality,” he said.
