India's Top Economist and former RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan speaks to Barkha Dutt in the 36th episode of our podcast 'Inside Out with Barkha Dutt'.
Rajan is the Katherine Dusak Miller Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at Chicago Booth. He was the 23rd Governor of the Reserve Bank of India between September 2013 and September 2016. Between 2003 and 2006, Dr. Rajan was the Chief Economist and Director of Research at the International Monetary Fund.
Rajan speaks about being an Indian, his childhood days in Delhi, why he wanted to become a fighter pilot, his stint in the RBI, inside the Demonetisation move, whether he thought of joining politics, walking with Rahul Gandhi in the Bharat Jodo Yatra, and why he is upset with BJP's Subramaniam Swamy.
All this and much more in this episode of Inside Out. Catch our previous episodes here: • Inside Out | A Podcast...

My question to Mr Rajan that if he knew bank had bad loans why he adviced and opened his mouth during BJP regime. He had opporrunity from 2000 to 2014 as he claims he was somehow involved in advising. Now talking credit for clean up. Modi and his team were as soon as they took charge in 2014 and said in lok sabha that he had a option to bring white paper, world to know our banking status or try to live with and manage. He chose the later. So he is great but very biased.

During his RBI reign, we faced double digit inflation, bad management of bank assets, taper tantrum, lesser reserves. He didn't open his mouth during UPA regime on Banks bad loans but kept on masking it until the Govt change. Majority of the bad loans were created by UPAs phone call banking which eventually the present Govt wrote off or waived after taking haircut. He is not a true economist. He is a politician pleasing his bosses. But his successors should be lauded for clearing the mess he and his Government created

He had clearly explained the issue of Bad loans. i don't if you were listening to him when he talked about in the interview that it's not about the UPA time though it was between 2006 to 2008 (UPA years) but rather what was happening during that time - Euphoric brief financial crisis years and he goes to explain what that is and the global financial crisis and the slow down ...and not how to extract the loans and to push to recover and recognise what was the issue, and creating the structure. Love how he gives credit to his team about how they went about cleaning bad loans. (He does add more needs to be done in terms of Debt Recovery system where these big guys get away and small guys struggle). Talks about UPI and coming down of Inflation etc (all which you so conveniently ignore). Freeing up banking, bank branching etc

As the economics world mourns the passing of Prof. Solow, it is probably appropriate to focus on technology (including internet and related technologies) as the fulcrum of economic growth. In this sense Prof. Rajan’s emphasis on the service sector for India’s economic growth is right. Technological growth does not occur in a vacuum; it requires high class research departments both at universities and in the corporate sector, and an outcome based public sector. This will happen only if relentless efforts to achieve higher levels of quality is appreciated and respected in all walks of Indian life. What politicians should do is to create and solidify a structural (including legal) framework for this to happen.

Dr. Rajan's idea is to focus on human capital. His utopian idea that industry would come naturally if we have the skilled workforce doesn't happen unless there is favorable infrastructure. Instead those skilled workforce would move out of India for the job. There will be lot of brain drain. A student will study only when there's enough employment for him in that field, He would not think that if he is skilled, new industries would come for him. While I agree that PLI is not a panacea, what is really important is good infrastructure with good governance.

Demonetization along with digital transactions had two main goals: - unearth black money and move people from cash transactions. It largely succeeded on both. Not all of the black money has been unearthed, but a good portion has - disrupt and stop the printing of fake currency from Pakistan and other external elements. This was a big success.

Well, how about Smrithi Irani becoming education minister, does she have academic credentials. How about the present Finance Minister? When reporters ask her if the price of onion is increasing - her reply is 'I don't consume onions'? The tax for women's hygiene products is more? the reply from her is there are cheap alternatives - let them use it. At least he is better than the present FM for sure.

@prasadm5873 neither was PC ever PM of India nor was Modi ever the FM of India. If Raghuram Rajan was critical of the defacto UPA PM, Sonia Gandhi he would not have survived in Govt. even a day after such comments. The correct equivalent to PC is Nirmala Sitaraman. Not Modi. This is the problem with you guys. You love to give Modi more than the due importance in your own minds and then bad mouth Modi as though he was treating others are lesser mortals.

PC and chidu had differences and if ur in the habit of reading newspapers then you’d know RR had his own mind and it was down to MMS/PC/RR on fiscal matters. YES SG will weild power eventually. But am thankful to her coz she did not make a dummy Gowda as pm chose someone of international repute. MMS was architect of transparency who put more power in citizens hands with RTI, CAG CVC EC( though she broke itv into three) being powerfully independent. The first thing NDA did was to dismantle these institutions to obscurity.

Lets meet on this forum post General Election if you are still around along with dummy piece Mallikarjuna Kharge. As for RR, his knowledge on RBI guidelines is so shallow that he says there are no bankruptcy codes in RBI!!! You reckon RBI has been functioning for decades without guidelines on backruptcy matters? Who is he fooling? If so, aren't guys in UPA responsible for allowing RBI to run for decades without bankruptcy guidelines? RR has been the worst RBI Governor ever. It was Narasimha Rao with Subramanian Swamy's blueprint (and MMS was a figurehead RBI Governor then as he was a dummy PM later) who carried out economic reforms. Read the newspapers properly without tinted glasses.

It was a pleasure as always listening to this conversation. I have one point of deviation. Can you arrange a reply from Raghuram Barkha. India needs multiple engines fired together. Let us do everything you say. But let us also not give up low skill manufacturing as you say. A large part of our work force is really not that hifi as you prescription requires. Nor do we have a great infrastructure for education. Trust me finding a good teacher is like finding an oasis! don't you see the quality of teachers who cannot do a 5th standard sum themselves teach the 5th class. Afterall, we have to put up with all kinds of clouds on merit- reservations, recommendations et al. Therefore, in the available time we should fire all engines and absorb our labour force as productively as possible. Remember for every successful Raghuram there may be lakhs or crores like me.

It seems like Raghuram Rajan wants to have his cake and eat it too. Is it likely that demonetization helped the growth of UPI? He is opposed to demonetization but yet wants to take the credit for the growth in UPI. There is a difference between giving an idea and getting it implemented. I'm not sure that bureaucracy by itself can change things. It needs strong leadership at the Government. Case and point, Raghuram Rajan was both in UPA and NDA govt yet there was limited things that could be done in the UPA term. I'm not saying that Raghuram Rajan's work is not credit worthy or taking anything away from his work. But to think that only he can do it and his successors can't is wrong. His point on education in Jharkhand is essentially that. If he felt so strongly about it why didn't he say or do anything about it when he was serving the 2 govt from diff parties.
