How Far Ahead Is China Really?

The gap between India and China varies by sector:

Infrastructure & Manufacturing: 20-30 years.

Technology & Innovation: 10-15 years.

Economic Size: 20-30 years to catch up if India grows at 6-7%.

Urbanization & Military: 15-20 years.

Adding a few more sectors (like healthcare, education, and the environment) would make the comparison more holistic but for now, let's stick with the broad distinction. So here we go.. And yes, I know that even with this pace, it won't fill the gap in the estimated years, as China will just keep advancing even more rapidly, lol.
