Foundation for Economic Development
In our latest Growth is Good episode, Montek Singh Ahluwalia shares an insider’s view of India’s reform journey: how ideas moved into the Overton window, why some changes stuck while others stalled, and what it will take to lift growth sustainably while managing politics, trade shocks, climate, and technology.
We cover the design of reforms (trade, industry, finance), coalition‑building across governments, the role of states, electricity pricing for a renewables-heavy grid, and how to plan for 8% growth in a world of uncertainty.
