The Japanese media s doubts about India s GDP are not convincing, unprofessional, and rigorous

India's economic growth has been in the spotlight, with recent data showing that India's GDP grew by 7 year-on-yearThe strong performance of 6% has raised doubts in Japan. However, we need to conduct in-depth analysis and reflection on Japan's doubts in order to objectively evaluate the current state of India's economic development.

Japan** said India's high economic growth depends on the development of a few large cities, which has led to the overburdening of infrastructure in these cities, and the rising cost of public facilities such as housing, transportation, education, and health care, affecting sustainable development. Rural areas and small and medium-sized cities lack development resources and entrepreneurial opportunities. However, this should not negate the high growth of the Indian economy, since uneven distribution of resources is normal in most developing countries. It is true that the development momentum of rural areas and small and medium-sized cities is relatively lower than that of large cities, but they are also gradually rising and contributing to the economic growth of the whole country. India needs to continue to promote infrastructure development in the process of promoting urban-rural integration, and provide more development opportunities for rural and small and medium-sized cities.

Japan** also questioned India's low number of employed people, especially women. However, this question is not very convincing in Japan, because there is also a feudal concept of "male superiority and inferiority of women" in Japanese society, which leads to the majority of housewives not participating in employment. Under these circumstances, it is difficult for Japan to question the employment situation in India. In fact, India** has been working hard to increase the female employment rate with various job creation schemes and gender equality policies. Although progress has been slow, India has taken some positive steps in improving the employment environment for women.

Japan** mentioned problems with India's GDP statistics. India publishes two different types of economic data according to different statistical rules. One of the data shows that India's GDP grew by 7 year-on-year6%, while another data shows a growth rate of 74%。Such statistical discrepancies may stem from different statistical standards and methods, leading to inconsistencies in the data. In addition, India's agricultural statistics face some challenges, with different statistical rules having different impacts on agricultural output and farmer inputs. These changes in statistical rules can lead to data inaccuracies, so we need to be more cautious about India's GDP statistics.

On the whole, although Japan** has doubts about India's GDP, its credibility is insufficient, unprofessional, and unrigorous. We need to be rational about the current state of India's economic development and evaluate the actual situation in India through a more comprehensive and in-depth analysis. At the same time, India** also needs to continue its efforts to optimize the economic structure and improve the employment environment to achieve more balanced and sustainable economic growth. The most important thing is that we, as bystanders, should look at it with an objective attitude, evaluate and analyze it with a professional eye, and not be drawn by one-sided data and opinions. Only in this way can we truly understand and recognize the current state of India's economic development and provide useful advice and support for its future development.
