The BJP's case for poverty reduction, infrastructure, digital payments and welfare, and the opposition's counter using unemployment, savings and rural wage data. Why India's demographic dividend could become a demographic disaster if the country doesn't create enough productive jobs before the population starts ageing. The uncomfortable education problem: More IITs, AIIMS, MBBS seats and higher-education enrolment, but are Indian students actually becoming employable? Why paper leaks and police brutality expose a bigger question: Is the government reacting quickly enough, or should a government of 12 years have built systems that prevent these failures altogether? The manufacturing paradox: India has attracted investment, expanded infrastructure and entered sectors like semiconductors, so why hasn't manufacturing's share of GDP reached the target set in 2014? Can India really de-risk itself from global shocks? From the Russia-Ukraine war to Middle East disruptions, how vulnerable is India's growth model to events outside its control? The biggest debate of all: When two sides can produce a statistic to counter almost every statistic, how do we actually measure whether a country is progressing? This isn't a debate about whether the BJP has done everything right or everything wrong. It's a debate about a much harder question: After 12 years in power, what should India's benchmark for success actually be? Watch the full debate and decide for yourself who made the stronger case for India's future.
