Despite a slew of reforms, India’s ranking in the ease of doing business index created by the World Bank Group improved by just one place to 130 in 2017 from a revised rank of 131 in 2016. The disappointing improvement, more than anything else, reflected the gap between policy formulation and actual implementation.
Now, with a series of reforms, the government has also come up with an eight-point strategy to improve the ranking. The strategy was finalised in a meeting chaired by finance minister Arun Jaitley on Monday.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.

The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
