How? Majority of people are in farming and in factories here, removing half of India would mean empty farms, empty factories, etc. Price of food would skyrocket overnight, importing would also become borderline impossible because we wouldn't have enough to pay. Not to mention exports would fall
Only thing that would increase is the presence of corporates buying up land (which is already happening in Haryana and Maharashtra)
>Approximately 45% to 48% of India's working-age population (aged 15 and above) does not actively participate in the labor force. According to the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), the national Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) hovers around 54% to 55%, meaning the remaining 45%+ are outside the formal or informal job market due to education, domestic duties, or aging.
True.

No, >>1823 says it correctly although a drop of 5% is not insignificant but it could still be thwarted by increase in productivity when big corporations buy more land and centralise the operations donu know dutch farms make 12c or 16x more money than india per hectare.
We could actually increase our yeilds and even the bargaining power of labour force will also increase.
The only industry or sector that will be affected is delivery ones like Swiggy and blinkit or whatever.
