Client Description
Mission, brief description, and history.

India@75 is a grassroots initiative for realizing the dream of an inclusive, sustainable and developed India by the year 2022, i.e., when India completes 75 years of Independence. It is a universal vision for India shared by Indians from all geographies and all walks of life. It was developed using collaborative public reasoning processes that involved thousands of Indians from all sections of the society.

India@75 was born after a speech (http://tinyurl.com/7ug8q45) that was delivered by Prof C.K. Pralhad, Paul and Ruth McCracken Distinguished University Professor of Corporate Strategy of the University of Michigan, when he was invited by the Government of India and Confederation of Indian Industry to talk about India@60.

Following the speech, a grassroots driven participatory approach to visioning was kicked off. The motivation behind this exercise was to get on board views of diverse people living in diverse communities in India. 

The India@75: People’s Agenda Document (

All programs and projects under India@75 are designed such that they match with people’s aspirations that are captured in the Vision Document.
