Over 67 per cent of Indians are between the ages of 75 and 65, or of working age. A remarkable statistic, this demographic dividend defined as the larger share of working age population than nonworking population reflects the country's immense potential for growth in the coming decades. The visionary Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative seeks to capitalise this inherent potential and generate employment for the 72 million Indians who join the workforce every year. This would catapult India to economic ascendency and help it attain the goal of a USD 5 trillion economy by 2024. – Reproduced
