Make India an export & private-sector driven economy

Principal Economic Advisor Sanjeev Sanyal has suggested that the Reform Agenda 2.0 should focus on turning India into an export and private sector driven economy. He further affirmed during an  interaction with ET that India’s infrastructure was not a ‘binding constraint’ anymore and with reforms like GST and IBC, “the last five years were for creating framework for delivery, infrastructure, governance. The next five years should be for growth driven by exports and private investments. Space has opened up going for growth and I am not in favour artificially inflating consumption”.

He also felt that the ongoing trade war should be seen as an opportunity to improve India’s competitiveness.
