Within a few short years, India will almost certainly grow to become the second largest economy in the free world, and the third largest free-market economic zone (after the USMCA and the EU). It is also an increasingly important hub of the global internet. These developments make economic regulation and reform in India a matter of global interest.
We will commission occasional research into topics like electricity reform, telecommunications reform, agricultural reform, digital regulation, and industrial policy (Make in India and Aatmnirbhar Bharat). We will also commission papers explaining Indian social policy and anti-poverty policies. Our goal in writing about reform, as in all of our research, will be to offer factual information about India, not to advocate specific policies for India.

A/Prof Salvatore Babones also talked about press freedom in India and said it is safer to be a journalist in India than in the rest of the world.
