The case is designed to critically analyze the various initiatives taken by a year-old government in one of the emerging markets of the world, India. After making history and breaking many records, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won the 2014 general elections in India and its Prime Ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, became the country's 15th Prime Minister in May 2014. In a span of one year, the government took various initiatives, scrapping older policies and bringing in new reforms. While many of these initiatives lived up to the promises made by the political party during its election campaigns, others disappointed the public. Moreover, the case describes one of the major concerns of the economists and analysts who opined that in the completed one year, the government had failed to achieve the desired and promised level of economic growth. Only the coming years will reveal whether the government will be able to meet its target for social upliftment and poverty eradication and to bring about enhanced economic growth in the country.
