7.8% Growth Amid Global Turmoil: Sanjeev Sanyal Explains India's Economic Resilience
India's economy grew by a stronger-than-expected 7.8% in the first quarter, but what is driving this growth, and can the momentum continue amid global uncertainty?
In this conversation with NDTV, Sanjeev Sanyal, Member of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM), discusses the broad-based nature of India's growth, the role of manufacturing and private investment, concerns around jobs and youth employability, and the Opposition's questions over GDP data and methodology.
He also assesses the challenges ahead-from agriculture and global supply-chain disruptions to tariffs and geopolitical uncertainty-and explains why India must remain agile in increasingly "stormy waters."
