At the BT India@100 Summit, Former G20 Sherpa and NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant rebuts U.S. President Donald Trump’s remark calling India a “dead economy.” Listing India’s achievements — from being the world’s fastest-growing large economy and soon-to-be third-largest, to landmark reforms like GST and IBC, massive infrastructure buildout, universal electrification and water access, and global leadership in digital identity and real-time payments — Kant says “we have anything but a dead economy.” He adds that India hasn’t misread Trump; rather, “Trump has misread India.”
