Globalization has become an inescapable reality in today's society. It refers to the increasing integration of economies and societies around the world through trade, capital and information flows, and movement of people. While globalization has increased economic growth and opportunities in many countries, it has also contributed to rising inequality, threats to national culture and sovereignty, and greater economic disruptions that can spread across borders. As India has opened its economy to global trade and investment since the 1990s, it has experienced rapid GDP growth but also increased poverty, unemployment, and social issues alongside prosperity for some. India needs further reforms to fully leverage globalization while managing its risks and disadvantages.
