During FICCI’s 92nd annual convention held on Friday, Gopinath had said that the regulatory uncertainty has played a major role in the economic slowdown in India.

“I believe, in the slowdown, regulatory uncertainty has played a role. That’s another factor that needs to be addressed. It is important for India to take up reforms but to be able to do this with greater clarity and greater certainty would help,” Gopinath said.

As per reports, Gopinath presented a list of factors playing a crucial role in economic slowdown before Modi.
