- Life span up from 31 years to 68.
- Self sufficiency in nutrition.
- Functional republic, decent protection of human rights.
Major failure - poor education system that produces literate zombies rather than “educated” people. No coaching in “Critical Thinking” that differentiates the educated from the merely literate.

➡️Achievements:
1. Deepening Democracy: When India stepped forward for democracy giving right to vote to all Indians, west was skeptical about it and “Illiterates running Parliament” (literacy rate at in 1951 stood at meager 18.3 percent ) was a major joke of the time. But, the same illiterate voter has shocked the world showing their natural tendency for democracy. From 54 political parties in the 1951 general election, India had moved up to 464 in the 2014 general election. Another achievement that barely gets mentioned is that India has been able to keep out the military from the democratic process.
2. Economy: India's Gross National Income (GNI) at constant prices has increased more than 35 times from Rs.2.92 lakh crore in 1950-51 to Rs.105.28 lakh crore 2014-15. Similarly, the per capita income at current prices has risen from a paltry Rs.274 In 1950-51 to a decent Rs.88,533 in 2014-15. Foodgrain production grew from 50.8 million tonnes in 1950-51 to an estimated 264.77 million tonnes in 2014-15 that indicates more than a five-fold increase and the fact that India is food secure for the time being. Today India being seventh-largest in the world by nominal GDP and the third-largest by purchasing power parity (PPP) is a key player in the world economy.
3. Self-reliance: When Indira inherited weak and troubled economy, we were looking for help from US and International Bank for Reconstruction and Development to face drought induced food crisis. At the time, Indo-US relations were straining due to Indira's criticism of the American bombing campaign in Vietnam, and because of President Johnson's policy of withholding food grain shipments to coerce Indian support for the war. With Green Revolution in India we could achieve self-sufficiency in the agriculture sector. With the advent of Green Revolution we not only became self-reliant but also able to export many produce to different countries. Introduction of modern machinery, hybrid seeds etc has also contributed to the progress in this sector.
