Narendra Modi Cannot Wish India To An Economic Boom

At his recent rally in Houston, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured Texans and the world that everything is fine in India. He said it not just in Hindi (in which he gave his speech), but in eight other Indian regional languages, before repeating it in English for the benefit of the Americans. It was almost as if repeating it in many languages would make it true. But all is not well in India as its GDP growth rate dropped to 5 percent in the last quarter, the lowest in six years.
