Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy extended a warm welcome to former RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan on Sunday.
Rajan, currently in India to promote his latest book, 'Breaking the Mould,' met with Reddy at his residence in Jubilee Hills.
During their discussions, the Chief Minister and Rajan explored strategies for the economic development of Telangana, delving into the current economic conditions of the state.
Known for his role as the former Chief Financial Advisor to the Central government, Raghuram Rajan provided valuable suggestions to enhance the economic situation of Telangana.
However, Reddy's meeting with Rajan triggered a range of responses from the public.
While some praised the Chief Minister for seeking guidance from renowned economists, others criticized him for perceived inaccuracies in economic predictions and his stance on manufacturing in India.
Rajan, in the past, has advocated against emulating China's manufacturing model, citing environmental concerns as a significant factor.
The diverse reactions to this meeting reflect the varied perspectives on economic strategies and the approach towards development in the state of Telangana.
