Viksit Bharat Legacy Book: A Call to the Dreamers, the Doers, and the Devoted

As India strides towards its 100th year of independence in 2047, the dream of a Viksit Bharat — a developed, prosperous, inclusive, and sustainable India — is no longer just a vision. It is a shared mission. And every great mission needs its torchbearers — those who not only dream of change but dedicate their lives to creating it.

To honour such remarkable individuals, the *Bharat Economic Forum* proudly announces the launch of the *Viksit Bharat Legacy Book* — a historic directory of people who have pledged their minds, wealth, and hearts to build the India of tomorrow.

This is not just a book.

It is a national memory.

It is a record of courage, conviction, and contribution.

It is the legacy of those who dared to shape the future.

🌏 Why This Book Matters

In every era of transformation, history remembers those who stood up before the world noticed. The Viksit Bharat Legacy Book is for such visionaries.

In a time when India is set to become the world's third-largest economy, we are also called upon to become a beacon of *dignity, sustainability, and justice*. It’s not just about GDP. It’s about SDGs. It’s about the power of entrepreneurship, science, governance, philanthropy, and global partnerships working together to uplift a billion dreams.

This book will tell the story of you — if you are among those who have silently shaped India’s journey, who have built institutions, mentored leaders, served the underserved, invested in impact, or taken India’s soul to the world stage.

🪷 Who Can Be Featured?

The Viksit Bharat Legacy Book invites individuals from all walks of impact:

Non-Resident Indians (NRIs):

You left India to make your mark abroad. Now, your success can inspire and fuel India’s next leap. Whether through investments, mentorship, philanthropy, or advocacy, you are the bridge between Bharat and the world.

Entrepreneurs:

If you’ve built businesses not only for profit but for purpose — in clean energy, education, fintech, healthtech, agriculture, or digital India — this book is your place of honour.

Bureaucrats & Government Officers:

You have turned policy into practice. You’ve implemented schemes that reached every corner of this country. Your work is often quiet, but your impact is colossal.

Scientists & Innovators:

You’ve cracked codes, led research, built rockets, and advanced AI. You’ve stood at the frontier of innovation, not just for India, but for humanity.

Politicians & Grassroots Leaders:

You’ve carried people's hopes on your shoulders. You’ve fought for roads, schools, water, dignity. You represent the beating heart of Indian democracy.

Wealth Creators & Philanthropists:
