Live Mint  

With India’s gross domestic product growth slumping to 4.5%, concerns have arisen over how to grow the economy faster. This has reduced public confidence in the state’s institutions, which has deeper ramifications for the economy’s sustainable development than a growth dip. India’s leaders must choose a few things to do, do them well, and only then move on to other things, Kelkar and Shah say. Adapting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s words, India needs both “Harvard” and “hard work” for faster growth.
