PM pushes for reforms, says will exit stimulus
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who as finance minister in the 90s initiated liberalisation, today said his government would steadily pursue reforms to feed economic growth, while withdrawing the fiscal stimulus by next year.
Growth is expected to be around 6.5 per cent (this fiscal). There are clearly signs of an upturn in the economy. With a normal monsoon next year, we hope to achieve a growth rate of over 7 per cent," he said addressing the inaugural of the India Economic Summit organised by WEF and CII here.
