w documentary, the india is booming, and it aims to become one of the world's biggest economies. india has come a long way since its independence from british rule. on august 15, 1947. after years of struggle, the indian independents movements succeeded largely thanks to the leadership of mahatma gandhi and jo, a lot of narrow this year indians, a mocking 76 years of independence, and their country has also reached another milestone. it has become the world's most populous nation. and well, india is home to some of the world's oldest traditions. great. it is also modernizing fast. in july, it's sent unmanned spacecraft to the mood. the country has its site set on becoming the world's 3rd largest economy. by 2030 india has been lifting more people out of poverty and creating jobs across the country. in many areas, including heights, executors, like artificial intelligence, we'll be looking at india's, unstoppable rise in this edition of made the w as business magazine. i'm to ponder to embellish, welcome to the shell, to the sky, isn't the limits? india is aiming for the moon. the count

the full b, e. u in japan. in 2008, india successfully identified was who deposits on the moon for the 1st time with the chandry on to prove by efficiency using its capital. india has succeeded in making a name for itself as a reliable partner among the nations taking part in the international space, race 8 or 4 cabinetry emissions, whether it's job on missions or among allowed mission. we have bailouts, which are all from other countries including the united states. if you might recall on generally on to the discovery of water molecules, you know, ice water uh what your ice on the moon was made by a nasa instrument that's true on chandry on the spacecraft will open the moon as an altitude of 100 kilometers before slowly descending to the moon south side. from that it will release building a land, which will then start collect from data. it will stay there forever, but it has the life of one single new nod day, which is about 14 or its days. and the robot will sort of talk to about in the surrounding terrain and do some geolo

the city of 10 i has emerged as the hub of car making in india. it has been dick named the detroit of asia of because auto giants, including bmw, shim di nissan, titan motors, and landra, have a presence there. meanwhile, the country is growing. middle class is shifting to luxury vehicles from inexpensive cars, but most of the cars made in india stay in the country last year and exported nearly 700000 vehicles. now that pales when compared to other asian countries, thailand exported more than a 1000000 cars. south career, 2300000 china, 3300000. an ages biggest auto exporter was japan, with around 4400000 units exported. joining us with more is dw corresponded charo. katya k, in daily charl into the oldest sector, has transformed fast, but it's still far behind other asian countries. why is that? will a host of reasons actually uh to begin with cause it made a huge dent in the auto sector. and recovery started only in 2022. and even then some of the problems that lingered on, and now the semi conduct a chip, or there's that has been affecting auto

the moon. and now india has become the 4th. and it's become the 1st country, as we mentioned, to land on the south full of the moon, which is completely unexplored. so that, and it says, is a huge achievement. also, of course, one must remember that india has a young, vibrant to be aspiration, to population. and they take great pride to be part of a country which is going towards the future as able to compete ethic, international level, and part of the big be even in this space program. and of course, what else to also mention of the fact of what some people describe as muscular nationalism as we saw the prime minister of india. and that the end of the movie was watching this touch down from south africa res, attending the brick summit. he was watching it and the last moments before the touch down tube, really anxious, and then he burst into applause clapping and raping the india flag when the touchstone ended successfully. so g is also seizes, as he said, the door open you india. but he also had the graciousness to say, i thin

it's going to be involved in the indian sites with china and india as problems with china or the land border. there are no american troops in india. you're talking about a geostrategic. if you'd like just name what people in the back rows. i'll suggest broad. i'm looking at the big picture where we are unfortunately engaged. our bibles live over the chinese is on the snow. you reset them others and it's on the lab. then it's got nothing to do with the american war search. okay. and they're american soldiers all around india. it has to be said, i've just been sort of this not, no, not in the saw there around india. if india continues to disobey the, i say that kind of rules being given to your p and countries as to what to do in terms of foreign policy and how to trade and who to sanction i, i don't know whether you believe biding was behind the north stream uh, bombing at do you think, and you will never come to be threatened in the, in bigger ways than just the state department in the past few days. and you are human rights allows the i didn't need to solve completion. but i will say

i mean, you have the congress body of india seem to trust the united states and european union countries as uh, as nations that you're going to do masses of arms deals with and attempt to side with what, why is india still? if you're exaggerating that rule, it almost plays and all this is a useful element, but it's by no means dominant. none of these countries is principally, for example, not so none of these countries is the principal element and the relationship of lloyd austin was there. as i said on june, a 5 year roadmap for india for you. i mean the 0 um, from the united states coming to indian 20 way then uh, $20000000000.00. that's right. because instead of guessing brooklyn, we believe we need and we're trying to, i will be more or more in expensive a live. we have ups assessment. why do you think it'll work? why do you think american arms will work? because it's currently being blown to pieces in the training, but battlefront. but as far as you know, some of the media say exactly the opposite. that is the russian ups that have not been over your grades advertisement for the wea

the usa. but now india was on the rise. what threats are facing adjoining me now from its capital new delhi is one of india's most famous politicians and intellectuals, indian national congress, m p, and former of the secretary general of the united nations. doctor sachi through a thank you so much 1st because you for coming back on can is ration you didn't become president of the congress policy. i thought you're going to good clinch that by the time that you are next on going undergrad. i should i to just on a truck and it said it was a very resigned interface. i, i have been a, since you haven't been the most successful news in the history of going to respond to your actions, which i suppose is, is a kind of modest consultation. what has to pack away the the bottom of was a lot of strong short lap and one day before we get to independence, i bet it just quickly ask you because the world is looking at these. yeah. what with biden's ending victoria newland down to the i'm a a and a lot of people talking about these. yeah. b

but most of the car is made in india. the in the country. last year, exported nearly 700000 vehicles. now that pales when compared to other asian countries, thailand exported more than a 1000000 cars. south career, 2300000 china, 3300000. an ages biggest auto exporter was japan, with around 4400000 units exported. joining us with more is dw corresponded charo, katya k, in daily charl into the oldest sector, has transformed fast, but it's still far behind other asian countries. why is that? as well? a host of reasons actually uh to begin with uh, covered, made a huge dent in the auto sector. and recovery started only in 2022. and even then some of the problems still lingered on. and now the semi conduct a chip charters that has been affecting auto sector, the world over has been affecting the auto sector in india as well. the supply chain of suffered massive disruptions. and what we've seen in the last year or so is that they've been long waiting periods, and especially for su, we use which sales are rising now and but some of the, the, the o

again and again, it isn't the i, that's the india. that's the problem here because it has problems with china. you're talking about the fact that you should basically be condemning rush. you're over you grain, and i'm not sure what the, what you want to say about south africa and brazil is india. and this is not a bit of a problem. yeah. it is actually a very good relationship with both of us. again, brazil. and indeed, there is a separate organization of the 3 of them called himself endeavors of south africa, which is actually gone some of his own developing projects going on and dates respective countries. us out every day is the smallest rich country as a globe both in terms of population and perhaps in terms of the size of the economy . but they were the 1st beneficiaries of expansion when britain became bruce. and i would argue that now with a group that comes to more than 40 percent of the population and about 26 percent of the global economy out, there is the emergence of what everyone sees as an alternative for 4 countries. um,

this is bbc news, the headlines... india celebrates a bit of history — it becomes the first country to land a spacecraft near the moon's south pole. republican candidates gear up for the first debate of the 2024 presidential nomination campaign... ..but without donald trump. and surgeons carry out the first womb transplant in the uk. she's doing really, really well. she has started having menstrual periods and that means her prospects of having a baby are very high. all of that coming up. first, let's head to the bbc sport centre. here's chetan. hello from the bbc sport centre. england will be without both owen farrell and now billy vunipola for their opening game of the world cup with argentina after bans for both players were confirmed. farrell has been handed a four—match ban after world rugby successfully appealed against the decision to overturn his red card against wales. he'll miss the opening two games of the world cup in france next month. vunipola, who was sent off against ireland, has been banned for three games b

we start this hour on the moon! indias the first country in the world to land a spacecraft near the moon's south pole. it was a tense last six minutes. remember, this is an uncrewed mission, everything was controlled here in the control room, there was no one on board. just so you know, the prime minister of india was not there, he was being beamed in, and watch the moment. —— watched. we there, he was being beamed in, and watch the moment. -- watched. we are minutes away — watch the moment. -- watched. we are minutes away from _ watch the moment. -- watched. we are minutes away from the _ watch the moment. -- watched. we are minutes away from the start _ watch the moment. -- watched. we are minutes away from the start of - minutes away from the start of our descent _ minutes away from the start of our descent. . ., , ., ., , ., descent. that was the moment and you can see the celebrations _ descent. that was the moment and you can see the celebrations there, - can see the celebrations there, india just the fourth country

and the weakening of india, the act of accession to india signed by the maharaja of kashmir, and now the indian troops became the reason for the first in the indo-pakistani war, kashmir was split into two parts and even then moscow sided with delhi. coverrtensing was one of those who in 1955 received the first soviet delegation to khrushchev and bulganin in the disputed region khrushchev then said kashmir is an integral part of india and no one can dispute this and in case of problems in kashmir , new delhi has only to shout for help , he showed it then. call through the city and the ussr kept its word. moscow was on our side. and i think today the prime minister the rendering of fashion is also aware of this, and this famous picture was taken then, in which nikita khrushchev and kashmiri prime minister ghulam mohammed bakhshi perform the kashmiri rite of mutual feeding after the departure of the british. it was moscow that began to rebuild and independent india separately felt the shoulder of the ussr in the subsequent clashes over kashmir, while the region itself became a place of

we start this hour on the moon. india is the first country to land a spacecraft near the south pole of the moon. a moment of history for the moon. a moment of history for the country. it was a tense final six minutes as it descended onto the lunar surface. we'll show you the moment. first, we take you inside the control room, just before landing. remember, this was in an crewed spacecraft, no one on board, everything controlled from here in the control room. and just to explain what we are going to see, the president, narendra modi was not there, so he was beamed up on a screen to watch, and also on the screen to watch, and also on the screen was a graphic, a computer—generated representation of the land as it descended. here's india's prime minister narendra modi. cheering and applause. people are applauding, let us wait to hear— people are applauding, let us wait to hear from the department of space and the _ to hear from the department of space and the chairman. you can see the cheers and the celebration, landing on th

the situation. but it took place that he said india is on the moon. and india was over the moon when they heard this news. she looked very calm in the lead up to this touch done. but they just spoke to jonas and said it had been a tough journey that there went through a lot of pain and agony. and he also said there were lots of scientists who had been slipped for one year. so she times, everybody was spot this journey and specially you said there was unsolved heroes worked so hard, which would not in the line died today. so a big day for the engine space program and a big day for india. yes. so why are people so emotionally invested in this raw, the technological feet as well? it is a big achievement by old standards, a get hundreds of total. only 3 countries had managed to land on the moon before india and just become the fault. and it's landed on the solid support of the moon, which is completely unexplored. so by what standards that is a huge achievement. but of course, one also has to say that india has a very young aspiration and vibrant populatio

of the business, the, the news line from ballot india becomes the 1st nation to land near the moon's south pole. it's on crude craft touches down safely to j, as in celebration. it's just the days of the process failed. landing on the lunar surface from and it's been around remote, he calls it a success for people to mount. it also coming up, but still russia, india, china, and south africa use the brakes summits to discuss including new members as the process president. so i didn't put a new faces in the rest bar in full primes, addresses the meeting by video link and as voting draws to a close ins and bump with general election. the opposition of so and the routing policies decades involved with the country baffling, high inflation and unemployment. the i'm gonna have enough is welcome to the program. in this space agency is celebrating the successful moon landing off. it's shawn dry on pre spacecraft. view is in the control room erupted into the chairs as the landing montville touchstone is the 1st ever lived in on the moon's unexplored south pole. india's prime minister watched t

and one of the things that is going on in india is the fact that india has actually become the uk's largestiskey. so there is something very important around that for the uk. yes, and we know since brexit of course that the uk has been trying to forge new trade deals around the world. we know that they are increasingly political. we have seen what is happening in the united states, it is also true of india, but there is a lot of politics involved, notjust economics you. absolutely, i think you have to look at the political side of this because as other stories in the news at the moment are stating, india is trying to flex its muscles as a global economic and technological powerhouse. and so india is actually laying down the law a little bit here as well in saying that we have to have a certain number of high skilled migrants coming in that would put in terms and conditions against visas. so this has become a very deeply politicised area for the uk government because obviously there are backbenchers that are railing against that. but also in terms of power relations between the two countries

the world's biggest, a nice contrast to the 30 the of india is job. most jobs are low, poorly paid for academics on the other. there's too little work. the field is not developed enough yet. even worse. only 20 percent of the population because the page on the indian school system just makes excuse me academics. the other thing is which norm cindy is economic reflected in many people classes expect and there are increasing numbers of rich people at the top. we invest in the economy. the a is also number one, belief for mobile app or net use, an apple already to produce smartphone, rather than in china. for equity gum said putting in drink seem really only the apples apples to apples to a star. but it also expands the country acacia structure. the news is requiring include an electric patient with multiple technology decision can help make us talk on restaurants. so more a roll at least 16 percent legal numbers, business reach, premium level, cost the nearly to making equipment. the comic we on the lines concerns of the biggest defense b a e systems is

we have been saying this a lot on the show. indiamports more than 80% of the energy needs from oversea producers. it is important that india moves to transition and cleaner energy and also moves toward having more energy security. right now, the situation is such that obviously a major issue with oil and gas supplies are coming in from the middle east. before the ukraine war, primarily saudi arabia and iraq were india's main suppliers. russia, of course, scaled up because of the discounts on oil during the period following immediately after the war. that increased to the overall environment that india is m needing on the energy front. russia is providing 50% of the oil supplies and demand. the interesting angle to the story is the u.s. and india is growing in that relationship with the u.s. the total value when president trump visited india to talk about the growing relationship there and expansion and increasing that number. i spoke to the energy minister about that and asked how important the role can the u.s. play in the diversifi

soft landing on the moon. india _ reports. soft landing on the moon. india is— reports. ts. soft landing on the| moon. india is on the moon. reports. soft landing on the i moon. india is on the moon. it was a moment several decades in the making. and on its third attempt, india stuck the landing. as mission control celebrated, so to did an entire nation. at railway stations and even on the street. nearly 7 million people watched the live stream on youtube, including these space enthusiasts who are feeling all the feelings. this is an incredible moment for india and even for the people in this room. india is now in an elite class of space explorers, getting to the south pole of the moon, something that no other country in the world has managed to achieve. take a look at these grainy photographs. they were taken just as it made its final descent onto the surface of the moon. speaking via video link from south africa, india's prime minister narendra modi said the landing was more than just a victory for his country. this success belongs to all our humanity. and it will help

we're laying the foundation for a new future for india. a lot of people saying that the establishment of the nations was that to be in rival, any petitions did you say of nations. i'm going to be really assured that that had emphasized on the fact that it's, that is not to which patients all performing at their own pace, to a point that the brick nation at events, the cost which you save in nations. that seems to be the economy for both of these countries. and i think that really provides some sort of understanding and some sold off missions a for everyone to understand that there's no sense of competition here. and i think this is also, we seem to miss deborah, she's 5 brussels the school bus show for the past. from the 1st break summit, our share in the global economy has been increasing. and now we have already surpassed the g 7. we advocate for great economic integration, where we could have a new currency that would not replace our national currencies by diversifying our economies and currencies. we promote cooperation between developi

the next few years. so yes, it's a big day for india. ok. and a lack of data about the south pole but, but the south pole somewhere a but a countries want to get to particularly just focus through why that is sure. because the salt full of the moon is that area of the moon that has resources like water ice, that can be turned into office agend for supporting human habitation. it also has resources like titanium, render aluminum magnesium that can be utilized. for example, if you want to set up a base on the moon. so that is why, especially many countries are interested in that particular area, including the united states, china, russia, and now india. so that makes this particular area so strategic because it enables emissions that india will have to now look forward to for example in the. a is a partner to the united states. autumn is a court which is just sign in june. and the item is, of course, actually wants to be able to do restore civilization missions. and so that is why the south fall is so critical for those particular missions that

busy the consumption of uh, luxury items outside of china and outside india. uh, if you get to the uh, chinese suit production and indian. so for the trip, it will take about 96 percent of sales produced in the world. so what makes a surprise fluctuate is the, the market uh for a high value items made was made of c o, in europe and united states, and also the economy in the china and the economy in india. the competition, that's the silk said culture, the production of cool can face with all the kind of a the expectation in the end of your quarter afield. so these are the main aspects that makes so price by place demand and competition with all the vehicle through items. and what are some of the key challenges faced by the silk industry in terms of cost management and maintaining competitive pricing? the challenges faced by c o is that uh, in order to add value to the product. so made with synthetic fibers that has been uh, one uh kind of benchmarking with soak. so fully as to uh, they used to compare in the past they used to compare the likeness of the polio a

it not the india alone. they see the yacht.

over the last hour or two. india'sn a success. he appeared on a screen in at mission control, addressing the people who had been involved. he said it was a success notjust involved. he said it was a success not just for involved. he said it was a success notjust for india, but involved. he said it was a success not just for india, but for the whole world. friends, on this joyous occasion, friends, on thisjoyous occasion, i would like to address all the people of the world, the people of every country and region. india's successful moon mission is notjust india's alone, this is a year in which... g20 india's presidency. 0ne family, one teacher... across the globe. this human centric approach, that we present, and that we represent, have been welcomed universally. 0ur moon mission is also built on the same human centric approach. therefore, the success belongs to all of humanity. and it will help moon missions by other countries in the future. i am confident that all countries in the world, including those from the globa

welcome to the de delta, big day for india rise. yes, yes, it is a big day also because as you pointed out in your report is because is the 1st time that a mission has actually landed on the south for the river missions attempted earlier . india try to land in 2019 russia is, you know, attempted to land just a few days ago. and so given the fact that the soft full terrain is so difficult because of the lack of data. so this mission success mix it and enabling mission for those the mission. so they're going to come see the next few years. so yes, it's a big day for india. okay. and a lot of data about the south pole but, but the south pole somewhere a but a countries want to get to particularly just focus through why that is are sure because the soul full of the moon is that area of the moon that has resources like water ice that can be turned into also gen 4, supporting human habitation. it also has resources like 10 am i render element in my vision that can be utilized. for example, if you want to set up a base on the moon. so that

so in europe and united states and also the economy in the china and the economy in india. the competition. that's the silk city culture. the production of cool can face with all the kind of a expectation in the they never go to the field. so these are the main aspects that makes so price for place demand and competition with all the vehicle through items. and what are some of the key challenges faced by the silk industry in terms of cost management and maintaining competitive pricing of the challenges facing but by see what is that uh, in order to add value to the product. so uh, made with synthetic fibers, uh that has been uh, one uh kind of benchmark and with soak. so fully as to uh, they used to compare in the past, they used to compare the likeness of the party as to the brightness of devoted as to fabric with the likeness and the brightness of and this most, most of the silk fabric. this was in the beginning, i say, in the seventy's, in the eighty's, in the last century. and today, as lightness and shyness is not the main part as a consumers are interested in the susta

the eu? that's a good question. i think india — the eu? that's a good question. i think india has _ the eu? i think india has a long and proud tradition of trying to maintain independence in foreign affairs. but since the brics first came together in 2009, india can continue to check the box it wants to check on using these meetings as a way to assert its independence in political and economic affairs. and also being something of a standard bearer for the global south. what has changed over that time is the rest of the world, and india�*s own ambitions, much more assertive on the world stage. the tensions with china which are not getting better... not only along the border, but also along india�*s periphery. india would say china�*s activities in sri lanka, nepal, myanmar, long—standing relations with pakistan, as the stabilising. and further afield, the belt and load initiative. at the same time, economic and uncomfortable awareness of how dependent india is on china. —— the belt and load initiative. that�*s a really good point and we will come back. susan, i want to ask you about china�*s

and on its third attempt, india stuck the landing. ol celebrated, so too did an entire nation. as did these space enthusiasts. this is an incredible moment for india, and even for the people in this room. india is now in an elite class of space explorers, getting to the south pole of the moon, something that no other country in the world has managed to achieve. nearly 7 million people watched the live stream on youtube, and these space enthusiasts are feeling all the feelings, excitement, relief, even tears. it was only six weeks ago when the lander launched into orbit. along with it, the hopes of an entire country. speaking via video link from johannesburg, india's prime minister narendra modi said the landing was more than just a victory for his country. this success belongs to all of humanity, and it will help moon missions by other countries in the future. these grainy photographs were taken as the lander made its descent onto the surface of the moon. what was it like when you saw the lander make it to the moon? i cheered! it was a
