Abstract

While surveying India's present economic condition and policies and evaluating the role of successive developmental schemes and social programmes, this paper highlights the persistent problems faced by the country such as administrative inefficiency, endemic poverty, lack of infrastructure and widespread corruption. Some ambitious strategies adopted by the Modi government to tackle the problem of inclusive growth are outlined as well.
