The mass slaughterings should be avoidable if I play my cards right; my worry is more on the lack of agriculture from trying to industrialize. Those famines hurt big time :/

As Gandhi once said, or maybe not, I think he did, but anyway: 

"It would not be progress for India, to simply import the unhappiness of the West."

He was referring to rapid industrialisation. He wanted India to revive local trade and skills, to avoid mass industrialisation and city-concentrated demographics. 

If he saw what that country had become, the poor old boy would be turning in his grave.
