Dr. Montek Singh Ahluwalia Delivers Inaugural Dr. Manmohan Singh Memorial Lecture at JGU

A former senior planning official delivered a memorial lecture reviewing India's post-1990s economic reforms, praising liberalization while noting drawbacks of gradual implementation that allowed lobbying and slowed growth relative to a major comparator. He assessed shifts in global GDP shares and argued that achieving sustained higher growth through 2047 requires politically difficult structural and legal reforms, including institutional capacity building, contract law and enforcement, foreign investment facilitation, and stronger intellectual property protections. University officials emphasized the speaker's policy-academic bridge and the legacy of earlier economic architects in shaping contemporary reform debates.
