About this audiobook
As the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government completes its current term ahead of the General Elections 2019, it is time to evaluate its performance, specifically in terms of its management of the economy. This book is a critical assessment of five years of the brand of economics Prime Minister Narendra Modi has championed, often referred to as 'Modinomics'.
Brought into power with the biggest political mandate in almost three decades, did the NDA government succeed in gainfully transforming India's economic trajectory or did it squander a once-in-a-generation opportunity? The book conjectures it is the latter, and analyses why the Modi government's stewardship of the economy is a 'great disappointment'.

A writer when not writing a fantasy should refrain from letting his fantasy come in clash with the data on ground. He should also refrain from bring his socio - political baisa when writing books on current politics. Because this isn't history which can be twisted due to lack of data.

The writer should have used his writings to highlight something good rather than spreading his narrow minded ideology.
