Wind power has shown enormous potential in capacity addition and substantial use throughout the world during the last few decades. From the very last era of the 1990s, wind energy has re-emerged and framed as a major source of renewable power generation. The worldwide wind power installed capacity has been doubled in every three years over the last decades of the 20th century. This paper demonstrates the important aspects along with the promotion policies which are adopted by the Indian government for enlarging the country's own energy security by proper utilization of available renewable energy sources. In India's perspective, wind power is not only used for power generation but also to provide the energy in a cost-effective manner. The details of India's entire power generation, demand, and contributions of various renewable sources are also comprised in this study. The present scenario of wind power potential in India has been also compared with the other leading countries in the world.
