 | | | For those who want to understand the issues and perspectives of Economic reforms– the whys and wherefores! Economic reforms have three important and to a large extent interdependent legs on which its success rests, namely— - Appropriate policies at the macroeconomic level
- Translation of these into meaningful plans and programs at the segment or sectoral level
- Effective delivery and implementation thereof
Making growth happen in India by V. Kumaraswamy talks more about design of programs and delivery thereof and less about macroeconomic policies and strategies. This book is not about fiscal deficits, WTOs, balance of payments etc. This is more about the programs like NREGA, GST, DTC, MSPs, PDS and fair price shops, food subsidies, land acquisition initiatives etc that are designed to translate overall objectives at macro level into specific initiatives at micro level. The book seeks to identify lacunae in them and a search for ways to improve their effectiveness and suggest new programmes aimed at enhancing the country’s growth rates. Read more 2014 | 300 pages

| | | Advance Praise! | | “This is an interesting take on the subject and I doubt whether any economist, whatever be their ideological learnings, will disapprove this. Mr. Kumaraswamy’s agenda and blueprint for 12 per cent growth is just the potion India needs at this hour to reach the heights we all aspire to.” | | Professor Abraham Koshy, IIM Ahamedabad | | “The book blends data, anecdotes and analysis in a way that makes it both insightful and interesting—a combination rare in books on Indian economy.” | | Rohit Saran, Editor-at-Large, India Today Group | | “There is no doubt that a well-implemented good strategy is better than a perfect strategy that is poorly implemented. Mr Kumaraswamy’s book provides a very refreshing non-economist’s perspective into the design and delivery of economic programmes rather than focussing on the relevance of reforms as a fundamental economic strategy. In doing so, it seeks to search for ways to improve their effectiveness and suggests new programmes aimed at enhancing the country’s growth rates.” | | Rohit Walia, Executive Chairman, Alpen Capital (ME) Limited | | “Mr Kumaraswamy’s insights into the drivers of change in India need to be widely absorbed. A timeless book at a strategic inflection point when India will certainly get rerated.” | | Shailesh Haribhakti, Managing Partner, Haribhakti & Co |
