SWOT Analysis of India vis-a-vis Narendra Modi's speech at SRCC, Delhi.

Thanks to his 'development politics' and 'vision for the youth' speech, Mr. Narendra Modi, Honourable Chief Minister, Gujarat stole the show at Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC), Delhi. 

It was really heartening to watch and listen to a politician of his age who didn't use even a single word to malign an opponent or didn't talk about caste, religion, scam, corruption, rape, etc., instead simply augured a change for the better and presented a larger picture to Brand India as Super India. 

Here's the YouTube Link of his entire speech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwL6zIecOjU&feature=g-user-lss 

However, what NaMo delivered at SRCC, Delhi was not alien to me, since, on January 06, 2013, I wrote almost the same thing on Facebook to initiate a social movement, exploiting the social media, on how to Brand India as Super India. 

And for that, I did an in-depth SWOT Analysis based on which any Political Party, Media, and Corporate House, if willing, can actually do many better things in India, for India, ushering in positive changes, courtesy which the entire world will benefit, well and truly in line with the concept of globalisation. 

Here it goes... 

Change India for the better 

SWOT analysis of India in order zero in on the Opportunity Pockets – to be created for a Social Reform based on nothing but sheer COMMONSENSE and MIND-POWER.

Though I wrote Social Reform but whatever I shared below, I did that in keeping with THE single-minded objective; that is to BRAND INDIA as SUPER INDIA for THOUGHT LEADERSHIP.

So, here it goes –

STRENGTH  

1.     Geographically well placed, so that way not vulnerable to natural disasters or catastrophes like Japan – that is always prone to earthquakes

2.     Abundant natural resources in spite of continuous environmental changes happening worldwide

3.     Manpower for any job to execute. English speaking cost-effective workforce  

4.     Unity in diversity despite jingoism and regional or local fights – happen everywhere in the world

5.     Unprecedented level of tolerance even when everything is going against and unmatched acceptability and adaptability to any condition – hostility notwithstanding

6.     Agriculture, undoubtedly the No.1 industry still, however needs a sea-change to embrace the latest technology and process for increasing productivity and profit

7.     Joint family for greater social security – easily available at home

8.     Rich heritage and culture on account of literature, science, music, cinema, performing art, art & sculpture, spirituality and, most importantly, sex – not to forget the legacy of Kamasutra  

9.     Hinduism – Swami Vivekananda defined – but not any Subramanian Swamy defined Hindutva. That has always been in favour of ‘women liberation’ and ‘youth power’ and has maintained a perfect balance between Capitalism and Communism

10.Perhaps world’s best destination for sojourns, tours and pilgrimages

11.Steady economy, though not developed as yet, irrespective of global market fluctuations and turmoil  

12.Much higher level of IQ, EQ (Emotional Quotient), and SQ (Spiritual Quotient) on an average than the US

13.Freedom of speech and action and an overall democracy in every walk of life

WEAKNESS

1.     Zero ambition for a collective growth as a nation; tremendous amount of selfishness; and laziness to think beyond the obvious or go and do beyond the comfort zone

2.     Colonial hangover unlike an independent country

3.     Talent exodus, regionally, as well as nationally, for individual success and growth

4.     Nuclear family syndrome, thereby thinking the world is a cocoon or well

5.     Over lenience on technology and electronic gadgets like mobile and tablets – even at the age when that are not needed at all, realistically. And that too, at the cost of books. Precisely story books

6.     ‘One coat fit to all’ education system from the school level that ensures more certificates than knowledge and shows off higher literacy rate by hook or by crook on the basis of one’s signing ability only

7.     Number game and rat race everywhere, in almost every educational institute, where rank precedes experiment or innovation in any field

8.     Marriage – as a mechanism of social acceptance and privileges and generation extension and expansion

9.     Mushrooming growth of average talent in every sphere minus any depth for that matter

10.Multi-language – a barrier for intra-nation communication and comprehension

11.A huge difference in living, lifestyle and culture between the urban society and the rural lives – a mobile phone usage or a cyber café is not even near adequacy to bridge up that chasm

12.Healthcare and hygiene – totally amiss or missed in the larger part of the country

13.Religious fundamentalism and fanaticism and caste and quota ploys to create unrest among lives

14.Tremendous decay of COMMONSENSE even to address a simple problem and solve that with a simpler solution and almost zero knowledge about Indian history and its rich heritage

15.Lack of interest in playing different games, as sports forever neglected by people at large

16.Defunct constitution that actually mars almost everything from political system to law and order to legal proceedings

17.No sex education

18.Unemployment or wrong employment

19.No sense of punctuality and discipline and leadership

20.Dichotomy, hypocrisy, lies, loose morals and corruption  

THREAT

1.     Corrosion in social structure and a perpetual damage to it, compromising on the middle-class values i.e. the lubricant for an increased friction between the upper-class and the lower-class

2.     Dearth of talent, courtesy talent exodus and average talent or mediocrity

3.     War between Misogyny and Feminism, when the former will rule the rural society and the latter will sway the urban society, resulting added friction but no solution

4.     Consumerism will take place but not to boost up production at home. This will rather create a need gap thereby open up more import options to exports, making India a trader market, exactly what the Brit wanted to make of India and now the US and China do and will

5.     More and more rage and outrage and reaction and problem citation but no leadership or motivation to find a solution

6.     Flood of information, mostly wrong and unwanted, as fed by media to help advertisers ride on TRPs and GRPs in line with Consumerism

7.     Hypocrisy of political parties duly exploiting the unemployed and outrageous youth with religious and caste dopes

8.     External forces like Pakistan, China, and of course the US, willing to induce terrorism, cheap quality products and volatile economy

9.     Corporate mafias who will ensure bailouts thanks to the tax people give to a state Govt., if in need, and great margins while on song, but won’t really address and attend social issues

10.Epidemic diseases, malnutrition, female infanticide, rape, trafficking, drugs, etc. – the evils will crop up

11.Injustice towards anyone weak – not only towards women and children – will be a part and parcel of life… gradually sliding towards cannibalism

12.Baba-ism, Amma-ism, Astrology, Sathsang, etc. will be deep-rooted to syndicate flesh trade, slavery, drug peddling, and trafficking under the wrap of Dharma

13.Unreasonable parental demands on children’s education to marriage to job will continue

14.Cancerous growth of electronic and digital media at the cost of print media to excite one react immediately in the name of interaction without putting much thought into an action will take place

15.Lack of confidence in the youth to think and do anything new, fresh and innovative will rise; however loads of false ego, attitude and arrogance will develop in them to exude the ‘I am cool’ image

OPPORTUNITY

1.     Spreading Hinduism minus any fundamentalism, fanaticism or extremism of Hindutva among people to embrace the good things of Islamism, Buddhism and Christianity to create an open religion that’s plain and simple Humanism for Humanity for Humans

2.     Increasing the SQ – Spiritual Quotient based on day to experience of life, mostly to get rid of greed and the fear factor that makes one insecure of everything and everyone including self

3.     Creating n-number of micro societies, kind of a co-operative, to help, support and co-operate, say 200 people at a given locality. This will help get back the ‘joint family’ system to some extent minimizing one’s tension for social security

4.     Expanding the employment opportunities rather exponentially by taking care of and patronizing sports, music, art, performing art, cinema, advertising, media, healthcare, hospitality and tourism like anything because all these have a global acceptance

5.     If the abovementioned point is looked after, the pressure on regular or mainstream academics would be reduced, so people will get proper education, not just certificates

6.     The modernization of agriculture cannot be possible unless the basic infrastructure is in place. And for that, construction of roads is the most essential whereas it will also pave the way for industrialization as a whole  

7.     Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) towards healthcare, education, sports, music, art, visual and performing art, hospitality and tourism, and various social issues got to be redefined, so people rather become ‘Brand Evangelist’ to just customers and take a Brand worldwide wherever they go. Time for corporates to understand, customers belong to society more than society belongs to customers

8.     Web, precisely Social Media like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, for the urban audience and radio for both the urban and rural audience hold immense potentiality to becoming a parallel media for ‘Responsible Journalism’ reducing the fabricated tension and hoopla catered to lives on the Idiot Box. And if that was done, people’s reaction would be controlled and get manifested into substantial action, solutions and LEADERSHIP. This can also create employment opportunity, if corporates know how to exploit that for their PR gain, plus that will put grapevine channels under serious threats to offer only believable and true news. In the process, this parallel media will be a great help to Police and administration as well

9.     Positive reporting to negative news – highlighting the good news more and in lion proportions than covering the negative news. For, as per criminal psychology it’s often experienced, criminals are generally blunt, their shrewdness notwithstanding, so there is a tendency among them to delve into the idea whatever gets a media mention is perhaps a great thing to do or indulge in to gain power    

10.Understanding marriage, not as a social label or hallmark to qualify a relationship happens between a man and a woman, in order to reduce the number of dowry deaths or divorces

11.Proliferation of sexology and sex education to minimize the mental disorder or perversion like rape, gang rape, paedophile, incest, etc. There is no need to control sex, but the burning need is to educate, organize and streamline sex as an integral part and a good habit of life minus packaging and marketing that as a sin or taboo or any flesh fair to be precise   

12.Entrepreneurship over a cushy or secure job, even if starts from home, should be pushed, favoured and propelled by all, to help it get organized… so that it can eventually become an employment option for 5-10 people at least
