Short Term Courses
Indian Economy after Independence
Objectives
The course is designed to offer an overview of the process of economic development of the Indian economy after the country became independent in 1947. As one of the poorest countries with a rich civilizational past, and one that adopted adult franchise, parliamentary democracy and the free press, an assessment of ‘what India is doing’ has been a matter of no small concern to serious observers both within and outside the country. The course will critically examine the broad range of development strategies adopted from the early 1950s till 1991 when economic reforms were introduced and further on to the present times.
