siliconindia | | July 20194India plans to become a $10 trillion economy by 2030; IT and Infrastructure are the two wheels driving this growth. However, the country has a requirement of investment worth Rs.50 trillion in infrastructure alone by 2022 to have sustainable development. As of now, only 24 percent of the National Highway network in India is four-lane. On the other hand, initiatives like Housing for All and Smart City mission are further making the opportunity attractive. However, the country is facing a huge crisis of trained architects. While the opportunity is lucrative, the country produces only 20 percent (around 24,000) of national architect requirement.
