Making it happen: 5 steps to attract investments

Several countries seek to withdraw investments from China. But has India taken the right steps to leverage the advantage that is on offer? Not necessarily. Some states have gone ahead with the suspension of certain labour laws to become attractive for investments. But are labour laws the primary inhibiting factor in promoting investment?

Anil Swarup has served as the head of the Project Monitoring Group (PMG), which is currently under the Prime Minister’s Office. He has also served as Secretary, Ministry of Coal, and Secretary, Ministry of School Education. In this piece, Swarup argues why the PMG must be revived.
