    Hence it is evident that within the time span of 5 years (2005 – 2010), the Indian Rupee depreciated by approximately 4.5 percent against the US Dollar although the Indian economy fared quite well compared to the US and major European economies in terms of economic growth in the era of severe global recession. This apparent contradiction may be defined primarily by the reason that the then Indian government failed to implement some key reforms which were strongly advocated by the World Bank, IMF and other…

    First of all, let us focus on the political environment. India had a very long period of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, and then became the colony of the British for nearly 100 years. In 1947, India was independent, and became a republic country. Due to British influence, India’s political structure is similar to Britain. India has a parliamentary system and a party system. There are more than eight national and two dozen regional parties in India. Among these parties, the Congress Party is the most influential party in the country. It had uninterrupted control of the government for 33 of the 44 years following independence. The Congress Party played a really importance role in India’s economic reform. For example, the aged P.V. Narasimha Rao led the Congress Party from 1991-1996 and was responsible for much of India’s free market reform in the early to mid-1990s. Comparing with other Asian countries, India’s parliamentary system and party system makes the political environment relatively free and open. At the same time, the influence and authority of the Congress Party also makes India’s political environment relatively stable. However there are also lots of issues impacting India’s stable…

    "When the new Government assumed office (June 1991) we inherited an economy on the verge of collapse. Inflation was accelerating rapidly. The balance of payments was in serious trouble. The foreign exchange reserves were barely enough for two weeks of imports. Foreign commercial banks had stopped lending to India. Non-resident Indians were withdrawing their deposits. Shortages of foreign exchange had forced a massive import squeeze, which had halted the rapid industrial growth of earlier years and had produced negative growth rates from May 1991 onwards".…

    Eighth Five Year Plan of our country runs through the period from 1992 to1997. Prior to start of the plan, there was a period of economic instability in India and hence no five year plan was implemented during 1991-1992. In 1991, India faced a crisis in Foreign Exchange (Forex) reserves, left with reserves of only about US$1 billion. Thus, under pressure, the country took the risk of reforming the socialist economy. P.V. Narasimha Rao was the twelfth Prime Minister of the Republic of India and head of Congress Party, and led one of the most important administrations in India's modern history overseeing a major economic transformation and several incidents affecting national security. At that time Dr. Manmohan Singh (currently, Prime Minister of India) launched India's free market reforms that brought the nearly bankrupt nation back from the edge. It was the beginning of privatisation and liberalisation in India.…

    The nature of democracy is to ensure a constant change based on the velocity of change in society. The faster a nation changes its mind, the faster the view on policies, laws and reforms are changed. Therefore when India signed the agreement we had a BJP heading NDA government at the center, while the years following till 2014 we had a Congress heading UPA. The manner in which these governments took to achieving these goals were very different. During Vajpayee’s period as Prime Minister of India he did create the Direct Primary Education Programme (DPEP) it wasn’t a justifiable right, yet the basic structure was comparable to the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) created by the UPA for the working of the RTE. By changing the demand for the achievement of the goals certain aspects in terms of feasibility were forsaken. This can heavily be observed regarding debates for the Right to Food Security Act (RTF) where the opposition heavily criticized the spending for the provision of food security to all. This was not essentially true as we can see in the law that it mainly combines already existing provisions created by other governments. This led to a lot of ill will from the general public that was affected by the recession at the time. On the other hand because the UPA government were so…
