About 70 years ago India decided to adopt Western style Democracy but Soviet style Command economy whereas China adopted Soviet style everything.

Then China started market reforms and liberalization in 1978 whereas India actually started 13 years later in 1991. Both cpuntries have seen massive growth, but the rate of growth in India has simply not kept up with China, and there is also the compounding effect of having starting earlier with more government support in China.

We really should expect to see India continue to improve, but the thing folks tend to not see is that by mere virtue of being closer to the equator, India will suffer massively massively more from Climate Change. The projections are pretty extreme. Unless you live at higher altitudes like Uttar Pradesh in India, you will be screwed

All due respect, not only do you seem to know very little about Indian economy, you're also confusing altitude and latitude. Uttar Pradesh for instance is literally a flood plain.
