Abstract: India’s strong economic growth masks serious challenges such as jobless growth, rising youth unemployment, and widening income inequality. Wealth concentration, stagnant wages, and regional disparities limit social mobility, while caste-based inequalities continue to restrict access to opportunities. These interconnected issues threaten social cohesion and highlight the need for inclusive policies, skill development, and equitable economic reforms to ensure shared prosperity.
