US-based veteran global investor Jim Rogers has expressed optimism about India’s economic trajectory under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In an interview, Rogers praised the government’s efforts over the past decade, signalling a shift in perception regarding India’s economic governance.
“Mr. Modi has said a lot of good things, and Mr. Modi has done some good things,” Rogers, who is known for his incisive analysis of global markets, told news agency IANS. He is also known for his expertise and strategic insights on India’s growth under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi in last 10 years.
Reflecting on India’s historical economic policies, he said, “For many decades, Delhi has talked about a lot of good things, but they haven’t really meant it. I never had the feeling that Delhi understood the economics and understood what should happen.”
However, Rogers noted a significant change under the current government. “Now, for the first time in my life, I think Delhi understands and they mean it, and it’s going to get better,” he added, highlighting a newfound confidence in India’s commitment to economic reforms and growth strategies.
Since coming to power in 2014, the Modi government has implemented several key economic reforms, including the introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST), the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), and various initiatives aimed at improving the ease of doing business.
