According to the revised GDP numbers released by the government on Wednesday, India’s economic growth under the previous Congress-led coalition government was slower than estimated earlier and was never in double digits.
Former Finance Minister of India, P Chidambaram, is mighty disgruntled with the revised GDP numbers released by the Niti Aayog for the UPA era. He has called it a "bad joke".
One underlying reason for India’s growth to accelerate are the fact that the economy is now well transitioned from the tectonic shifts it went through due to successive reforms.
