History of India

• India is a land of ancient civilization. India's
  social, economic, and cultural configurations are
  the products of a long process of regional
  expansion. Indian history begins with the birth
  of the Indus Valley Civilization and the coming
  of the Aryans. These two phases are usually
  described as the pre-Vedic and Vedic age.
  Hinduism arose in the Vedic period. 
• The history of this astonishing sub continent
  dates back to almost 75000 years ago with the
  evidence of human activity of Homo sapiens.
  Amazingly, almost five thousand years ago, the
  inhabitants of the Indus Valley Civilization had
  developed an urban culture based on commerce and
  sustained by agricultural trade.

CULTURE

• Indian cultural history spans more than 4,500
  years. During the Vedic period.(c. 1700 500
  BCE), the foundations of Hindu philosophy
   mythology theology and literature were laid, and
  many beliefs and practices which still exist
  today, suchas dharma, karma, yoga, and mok?a,
  were established. India is notable for
  its religious diversity with Hinduism, Buddhism, S
  ikhism, Islam, Christianity, and  Jainism among
  the nation's major religions. The predominant
  religion, Hinduism, has been shaped by various
  historical schools of thought, including those of
  the Upanishads, the Yoga Sutras,
  the Bhakti movement  and by Buddhist philosophy.

ECONOMY

  Fund (IMF), the Indian economy in 2015 was
  nominally worth US2.183 trillion it is the
  7th-largest economy by market exchange rates, and

  by purchasing power parity or PPP. With its
  average annual GDP growth rate of 5.8 over the
  past two decades, and reaching 6.1 during
  201112, India is one of the world's
  fastest-growing economies .However, the country
  ranks 140th in the world in nominal GDP per
  capital and 129th in GDP per capita at PPP.Until
  1991, all Indian governments followed protectionis
  t policies that were influenced by socialist
  economics. Widespread state intervention and
  regulation largely walled the economy off from
  the outside world. An acute balance of payments
  crisis in 1991 forced the nation to liberalize
  its economy. since then it has slowly moved
  towards a free-market system by emphasizing both
  foreign trade and direct investment inflows.
  India's recent economic model is largely
  capitalist.India has been a member of WTO since
  1 January 1995.
