Comparing India's economy with the previous government's tenure, he said that nine years ago, there were many challenges stalling the economic development of India and at that time India and was among the fragile five countries in the world, but the nine years of government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has led to transformation beyond imagination.
He said that the last nine years have been unprecedented as inflation has been consistently under control in the range of 4-4.5 per cent, except for a short period in 2022.
