🔍 What's Missing

The original framing omits the historical context of India's economic development, including the impact of colonialism and post-colonial economic policies on the country's current economic landscape. Additionally, it neglects the perspectives of marginalized communities, such as small-scale farmers and rural workers, who are disproportionately affected by trade agreements and market volatility. Furthermore, the narrative fails to consider the role of indigenous knowledge and traditional economic systems in India's economic diversification.
