That is like driving a car just in first gear and trying to make it go faster.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chief Economist of the World Bank Group and Senior Vice President for Development Economics, Indermit Gill said,&nbsp; If they stick with the old playbook, most developing countries will lose the race to create reasonably prosperous societies by the middle of this century.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It appears that the battle for global economic prosperity will largely be won or lost in middle-income countries, Gill said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World Bank report highlighted that more than 100 countries, including India, face serious obstacles in becoming high-income countries in the next few decades.
