India is deeply infected with bourgeois ideology where we believe that we can become a "superpower" while like 80% of the adults are functionality illiterate because... no one knows. Maybe because there is something innately superior about the country. So there is zero investment in stuff like primary education, healthcare, which would create the quality workforce required for boosting the economy. Since bourgeois ideology is internalised, we believe value is created by gifted individuals and such.
