The term “Indian economy” refers to the economic system of India, which is one of the largest and fastest-growing economies in the world. Ranked as the fifth-largest by nominal GDP, India is an emerging economic powerhouse with a diverse economic structure. As a developing country, India follows a mixed economy model, incorporating both public and private sector elements. While the government plays a significant role in regulating and overseeing essential sectors like defense, infrastructure, and transportation, it also encourages private enterprise and foreign investment to drive growth in other industries.
Historically, India’s economy was predominantly agrarian, with a large portion of the population engaged in agriculture. However, over the past few decades, the country has undergone significant economic transformations. This change was marked by the liberalization of the economy in the 1990s, which opened up markets, reduced trade barriers, and attracted foreign direct investment (FDI). These reforms played a key role in integrating India into the global economy and propelled growth in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, and services.
The services sector, particularly information technology (IT), telecommunications, and business process outsourcing (BPO), has emerged as a cornerstone of the Indian economy. In parallel, India’s industrial base has also expanded, with key areas like automobile manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and steel production contributing to its development. This growth is further fueled by India’s large and growing domestic market, driven by an expanding middle class, rapid urbanization, and a young labor force.
India’s trade relations have evolved over the years, with significant partnerships formed with countries such as the United States, the European Union, and China. However, India faces a growing trade imbalance with China, importing more than it exports. Additionally, the depreciation of the Indian rupee has led to challenges like inflation and rising import costs.
Rajan must be thinking that Rahul will make him PM if goes on opposing Modiji
Just as sonia gandhi has made a former rbi governor PMRajan may be under illsion that rahul will make him PM otherwise he has no reason to oppose PM.
This megalomaniac did not know how to do his job. He strutted around the country, mesmerized by the sound of his own voice and his groupies in the media.
With due respect to Rajan sir ,I have to opine That Mr .Modi and team can take care of Indian economy.
Once out of country and not holding any job of responsibility in the GOVERNMENT,one need not comment on INDIAN affairs.
Mr. Rao, just because he does not work in India so he cannot comment on Indian affairs be it Rajan or any one on any issue is a wrong notion and that is the reason why RSS Mohan Bhagwat says do not talk of economic slow down talk of nation building, look at the folly of the ruling group under Narendra Modi.
Dr.Raghuram Rajan should shed his academic gown and throw his political hat in the ring. Like everyone, he too is at liberty to enter public life. Last two years, I have been seeing that his statements are politically loaded and thinly veiled in the language of economics. He can’t continue to masquarade as an economist.
If at all Indian Banks are facing problems, it is because of Rajan’s policies. His Indian Boss is facing music now and natural for him to cry foul. We Indians know better than this guy on what’s happening. Modi did good by not sending him unceremoniously. No one can arrogate intelligence to himself. Rajan is playing politics without citing valid action point to improve the economy.
The chai wala and the lawyer could not demonetizeto cut “corruption” as long as Rajan was there. Only morons do not know why he was refused 2nd tern.
PM? Tumi Hindi Bol che????
Rajan was not given a second term because of his incompetence his refusal to lower interest rates when badly needed caused damage to the economy
Now instead of concentrating on his Job in USA he is again wasting his time interfering in India
Modi has cleaned the mess of 70 years of misrule
Only Print which is antiModi will give a platform for Rajan
The government had no business to poke its dirty nose in the functioning of RBI, which is supposed to be a completely autonomous body. If Rajan didn’t lower the interest rates, he had a perfectly good reason to do so. WHO TOLD YOU THAT THE LOWERING OF INTEREST RATES WERE BADLY NEEDED? AND HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT IT CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE ECONOMY, WHEN MODI GOVERNMENT WAS CAUSING THE DAMAGE? MODI HAD SCREWED UP THE ECONOMY BY HIS DEMONETISATION STUNT! EVEN NOW HE IS DOING NOTHING TO IMPROVE THE ECONOMY. Rajan is paying his full attention to his job, it is Modi who is messing up the economy. The whole world gives a platform to Rajan.
You have a satch in your name and shoot in your words. Are you paid to say these inanities or do you do it for free?
Rajan was incompetent and present RBI governor, a history graduate is the the most competent person. This happens when you pass your economics or business degree from a Jhumri Tilaiya sort of university. Not your fault . Bloomberg went to ask him this question and you have come to his webpage to comment. This is the difference and best thing is that he has at least a job but due to competent policies you have to work in an IT cell and getting Rs 2 for posting message.
O. K., Then what the new RBI governor did to correct the path. Or he is also incompetent? So nobody is responsible for the present mess except Rajan. What about the govt, NitiAyog, the FM and others who are involved in the finance dept. First one must have the courage to accept the reality. Then you will find the way to correct it. You can’t go on blaming others for the mess you created.
This is the bitter truth. Since Dr Rajan no longer works for the government, he can dispense with the sugar coating.
