India’s economic growth will pick up to 6 percent in the current financial year, said Finance Minister P Chidambaram, adding that the government is largely responsible for putting the economy back on a more stable footing.
“I’ve done more heavy lifting in the last 12 months than the RBI [Reserve Bank of India],” Chidambaram told CNBC on the sidelines of the Asian Development Bank’s annual meeting in Kazakhstan.
