/ -- A new book titled 'The Self Made Indian Dream' by Vinodh Subramanian, founder of the Self Made Indian Movement, takes a look at the aspirations of the new Indian middle class, narrating how they achieve success, and move up in the social ladder despite disadvantages.
Subramanian, who through the movement, is working towards making upward mobility possible for hundreds of millions of people from disadvantaged backgrounds in India, says, "The Indian dream has always been there. But, it's just that it's not been defined, neither given a name, nor promoted the way the U.S. has promoted the American Dream."
"I have a dream"
But, what about India?
As one of the largest economies in the world with hundreds of millions of people from poor, lower and middle income class backgrounds, does India have a dream of its own to inspire its people and to uplift them from various social disadvantages?
What about now?
Does India still have a dream that can make upward mobility possible for hundreds of millions of its people from disadvantaged backgrounds?
