💨 Abstract

India's Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, has stated that the country is expected to witness a steep rise in living standards, with efforts towards doubling per capita income in a few years. She attributes this to government initiatives and the effects of the last ten years of economic and structural reforms. The minister also emphasized the improvement in the Gini coefficient, indicating a decline in inequality in both urban and rural areas.
