New Delhi,3/6/2025:India has officially overtaken Japan to become the 4th largest economy in the world, a historic leap that reflects the strength, resilience, and aspirations of over a billion Indians.
Dr. Parmeet Singh Chadha, Global Chairman of the World Sikh Chamber of Commerce (WSCC), congratulated the Government of India and every citizen for achieving this monumental feat.
“This is not just a number. It is a national awakening. India is no longer the economy of the future — we are the economy of the now,”
