Rapid development has led to stark differences within that country, parts are modern, affluent, well-educated...and they live shoulder to shoulder with tribal, impoverished, and practically primal apes. It's the same issues every country faces when rapid development comes their way. It's going to be incredibly challenging for them to develop a healthy middle-class and egalitarian society.

It's more likely that the rapid modernization just leads to increased concentration of power to an oligarchy, and exploitation of the most vulnerable. Also fascist tendencies are all the rage these days on the international stage, of course those in power are looking on with interest.

I think this effect is much greater on India compared with other countries because it's so big, so diverse, and already unfair because of the caste culture already present
