That's what Arun Jaitley said on August, 2015. And Indian members are upset that people don't take India seriously and call Indian BIG MOUTH.
Quote:
"In an interview to the BBC, Finance Minister
Arun Jaitley detailed the reasons why India could become an engine of growth for the global economy.
"I see this as a great opportunity. The Chinese 'normal' has now changed. It is no longer the 9%, 10%, 11% growth rate," Jaitley was quoted as saying by the BBC.
"
So the world needs other engines to carry the growth process. And in a slowdown environment in the world,
an economy which can grow at 8-9% like India certainly has viable shoulders to provide the support to the global economy," the FM said."
