Abstract
Raghuram Rajan and Rohit Lamba are clear that “Acche Din” are not here yet and the direction the NDA government is taking will not get India to the promised land soon. They recommend a strong push for services as against manufacturing, increased spending on education and healthcare, and devolution of power to local governments. They question the logic behind large subsidies to promote manufacturing when the jobs created in this manner are so few.
