Raghuram Rajan at ISB: On India's assets, challenges, and idea of 'developed, rich India by 2047'

No, given a finite budget he is suggesting subsidies that will maximize gains. After all this is an optimization problem and not a matter of personal preference. We can not write off 35% child malnourishment or inadequate education as if it is the child's Karma. Malnourished kids will be permanently, mentally and physically stunted. We need to get the basics right(ex: value for life), and everything else including semi conductors will follow.

[@abhinavgeorge5189]

There are various economists in the world and India with an equal and/or greater calibre than Raghuram Rajan. But there aren’t many economists of his educational qualification and calibre who have held the post of the governor of the RBI who are willingly giving suggestions to improve the economics of our nation. And it is very weird to compare Modi to Raghuram Rajan, as we all know Modi has been elected by the people of the country to lead us as the prime minister, but it is also known that he doesn’t have the educational qualifications or most probably the sufficient knowledge of economics to be compared to Raghuram Rajan. Similarly Raghuram Rajan wasn’t placed in the rbi because he was elected but because of his competence in the space of the economics academia. And for the argument that there are millions of Raghuram Rajans but Modi is one among millions. If we say the Modi is one in a million, since the population of India is 1417 million there are 1417 alternatives to Modi in India, but roughly estimating, there will be less than 20 iit(madras/bombay/delhi) graduates in IIM Ahmedabad (on the higher side). So on considering for the past 50 years, there are still less Raghuram Rajans than modis. Now if we consider that he has a phd from a T10 university he becomes even rarer. 😅

Developed countries have about 7 doctors per thousand population. India has 0.7. So, we need to have 9 million doctor jobs for developed status.

Second, the design will still be controlled by US and there is nothing to gain for India. On the other hand if we have design, development and manufacturing, then our engineers and manufacturing companies will learn end to end of chips, which I think is important for India for the future!

I agree with Dr. Rajan on all counts. Especially import substitution bit on education. I came to the US and studied at a world class university because I couldn't get into XLRI. Had there been more XLRIs in India, I would definitely have not spent so much more money to study here in the US. In India, the competition to get into good schools is enormous and takes the focus and efforts out of actual education and research, and reduces it to focusing your faculties on cracking entrance tests. I realized the fact that it's okay I'm not smart enough to be in the top 0.001% to get into XLRI, but smart enough to be in top 1-2%. Which to my mind wasn't bad given both the quality and quantity of Indian students appearing. In a top US university, I need to be in the top 15-17% given that's the rate of acceptance of good universities here. That bolstered my chances of quality education by 17000 times. And 17% are still at very selective universities.

Malnutrition is the result of poverty in India. Govt is already giving 80 cr people free ration, what more can the govt do with limited budget. We need more manufacturing jobs where the skill requirement is lower than a service job, to bring more people out of poverty quickly. India has a huge population and need to do everything across the entire economic spectrum - from sending Satellites, building chips to building toilets, basic vocational training etc. A lot happening and a lot more would be required to do till 2047 to achieve a 10k$ + per capita income. When we started our Space Program, the world laughed and preached us saying we should feed our poor first before we take up such scientific challenges and spend money. Now the world is applauding the success of ISRO. Similarly we need to start on chips the future is electronics and computers in every simple tool or appliance that we use. We need not be 100% self reliant in higher end chis but at least in the high volume, low end chips we can be 100% be self reliant for faster rollout and better control. Raghuram’s baises are clouding his judgement.

[@PrakashRamiah]

Roti means 2000 calories of food per day,kapada means 50 meters of stitched new per year, rozgarr is 300 days employment at 1000 rs per day, makan is shelter as birth right at 150 sq ft fsi at coc basis. America is going to declare shelter as right.after carona spacial segregation,social distance factored in housing within a shelter and between shelter. Another important advise is land is 2 dimension but shelter is three dimension. But trouble is we have 80 lac circle rates decided by state govt used in the or rather confused by rbi for taking as collateral value. Thus the problem is fixed by utility value of land . Meaning when any peace of land is given as collateral esp for banking system now onwards to arrive at space creating figure and arrive cost of construction rather rely on state circle rates. Thus means same fsi,same construction cost and same sq ft rate meaning we are ready for one nation one housing through the newly formed ministry of cooperation. This means 3 to 8 member dwelling priced at same rate,same ,specification all over country viz at 12,24,33 lacs we gets houses if 450,900,1200 sq ft shelter. So the guest speaker and students st esp ISB this called Dravidian model of eradicating shelterness universally. I am the co author of this concept. 42000 sq ft fsi at coc at 2500 rs per SQ ft is 15 trillions dollars as house with housing coupons through rera rbi for 35 cr households as fundamental right state wise, through a chief shelter commissioner,land comp bonds,first mortgage ,second mortgage bank,limited purpose construction banks,1,2,3, ... 8,9,10 rated construction banks. Mal nutrition answered the calories baseed revamped civil supplies. What amritya sen,Abhijeet bannerjee. Forgot reason for inequality and powerity is colonial method of value land but it is by valuing land by fsi index . Agri is zero fsi,barren land,and shelterable space creating land and so on. Happyness index to 1 from 136. Reg capacity 25 cr acre for Agri,10 cr acre for pre and post Agri,cattle,wind mills,solar etc and 609 de sal plants if 10 cr ltr per day,35 lacs acre 2.7778 fsi indexed land comp bonds GDP dies not matter,mortgages as a percent of GDP not accepted,density of population is wrong.....we are going to get 2 Nobel prize for economics and second for international understanding and peace. Let us debate,discuss. Let us switch to indifference curve based land valuation,,prof , Samuelson's revealed pref theory and prof Brahmananda semibombla ,leontiff input output, Pareto welfare principles.. we are theoritcally correct in our Dravidian model of eradicating shelterness universally.

[@SanchitSnehashish]

Lol. If this "quality education" could get us chips, why don't we have any chip manufacturing plants rn? Most Indian people who are from talented enough to make these chips are from IIT, IISc etc. (top colleges), but still chose to move abroad either for a job or to pursue their Master's/PhD. Because THERE ARE NO (major) CHIP FACTORIES IN INDIA. It's kind of like the chicken and the egg problem, you don't have a world class factory capable of producing the latest cutting edge chips -> you cannot retain the top talent in this country -> because of which you don't have a world class chip factory. Now let's assume what he is saying is right, we invest in our education system and somehow build colleges competing with MIT, Harvard etc. and we get the top talent in India, what's the guarantee that they would still stay in India after they finish their education. Now let's assume, even after all this, they somehow stay in India and decide to build a factory, the only company in the world that can build the equipment to make the latest chips is ASML. Now would they give preference to you (someone whose name no one has heard of), or to some big name like TSMC, Intel or Samsung. So, it's much better to invest in something solid, to get your feet off the ground, and then slowly invest in more quality education as he said. You cannot just blindly build schools and expect things to fall into place. Sometimes, you have to carve out a way for the water to flow. But after all this, someone still says "what's the importance of chips", please throw away your laptop/mobile/tablet/TV that you are watching this on.

before becoming RBI g9vernor , what was his dose of interaction for the welfare of India . he was recruited into that position by Congress during that era , can he place on record what he get his mentors follow him . one great thing he did is to clean the NPA , much of this was absorbed by BJP government and nothing he did during the period of his stint when Congress was in power

His passion, the depth of understanding of economic pheneomenon around the globe, putting it into the Indian context and articulating it so beautifully - is so inspiring to young scholars! He might be criticised by the Indian "mainstream" but voices of dissent, from 'few' scholars that of Rajan's standing do more good for the country than the support of 'many' flagwavers!

[@abhissri6666]

Dude, I have even read his PhD dissertation, no doubt quite enlightening. No doubt, he is a product of great intelligence but that doesn't takes away the fact that 1. Economics is not a perfect science, his predictions and remedies have been way off the mark 2. His biases against the current regime is visible in his prediction about Indian GDP growth, how reforms will pan out etc. have been on negative side 3. As Raghuram himself mentioned at the beginning - Execution is key. As an armchair academician, he is way off from any execution. He lives in theory and assumptions

The comments here tell me India will continue to disappoint both the optimists and the pessimists. The society/country at large has the governance it deserves. What society deserves varies state to state, hence the wide variation between states like UP and Tamil Nadu on one hand, and the Hindi heartland on the other

I thought Professor Bhagwan could speak like an academic, but he has taken the stance of a common man .... ignorant but very opiniated.

Maybe because economics is not always rooted in ground reality. Professor took the proper approach in my opinion. The common man doesn't think about statistics or neo classical economy theory

[@global-villager]

Why Nobody want to talk about how "The Elephant in the Room" (Indian Caste System) is stopping India's progress from past 1000 years (Including years after so called Independence)! Because without proper education of the hardworking class (So called low caste) India can't innovate in manufacturing sector and without innovation India can't progress in future. Or may be stuck in middle income trap. 🤔😒🙏

[@wisdomhighschool9975]

Today,Many CEOs of Big Indian MNCs are Of Tamil Origin,BUT, Many of them are UPPER-CASTE,Becoz DMK-AIDMK Discriminated against Upper Castes in Tamilnadu,They migrated to Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahemdabad,Gurugram,Delhi and Pune etc to Show their Talent and Became CEOs through Hard Work and Talent,Not through Reservations or Discrimination and Many Big Businesses in India are also Established by Gujarati Upper Caste Hindus,Marwaris, Jains and Parsis Becoz they had Entrepreneurial Culture and Even Today Modi Govt allowed 1 Lakh+ Startups to Rise, Everyone is building a Startup to Showcase their Talent and Create Employment and Build Indian Modern Industrial Base

[@sagarpani3889]

Look I agree to uh guys and your points who commented in this post. But let's see it in a different angle. He is criticizing the govt. in a logical and valid way unlike our opposition. It's not gonna shake Mr. Modi's stance but his points will be considered as options before making any policies. He is an ex-RBI governor. Just think of the amount of knowledge he possesses and the experience. I personally support his criticism because a right criticism always helps a right govt. to do his work more efficiently.

[@irsharma]

Manufacturing is one great sector bus that never leaves. You r certainly to be innovative enough to get into different market. No country can be great without manufacturing. Rajan is totally wrong when he said the manufacturing business has. Such persons in power have actually done the damage, even to certain extent Manmohan Singh….

Exactly our private sectors are all greedy , they invest in stock market rather than investing in human capital . When government creates any infrastructure, people are not made accountable and they also rakr everything for granted. So Raghu is saying - people need to be made accountable and there has to be rigorous framework to make health and education as primary agenda

[@justcurious40]

I have a comment to make about economist like Mr Raghuram Rajan. First. They were on lag indicators and there also they interpret these indicators the most pessimistic manner. Now everyone knows that lack indicators are only telling you the past history. If an economy is on the upswing up swing, then looking at lag indicator is not going to give you any good information. They can only be useful for some people who want to beat you down because they are essentially reflecting the past mess which was created before the up swing activities started so I have pity on these kind of economist Who are constantly changing their assessment because they are not keeping track of the leading indicators. They are only trail. Such people are not good as economist there as good any lay man perhaps they are worst because a man is not even a pessimist

[@JaraBond007]

The educated author misses an important point - when you have a large poorly educated populace, doing manufacturing makes sense because it can employ a large number of people.
