DISTINGUISHED ACADEMIC, economist and lawmaker, Manmohan Singh will be forever admired and revered as the chief architect of India's reforms. He was determined to make India a market-driven economy and, backed by Prime Minister Narasimha Rao, took path-breaking policy measures to make it one.

Devaluing the rupee against the dollar by 18%, in two stages, was no easy task. Also, Singh realised that the Indian currency needed to be more market-determined and made it largely that by 1996. The dismantling of the licence raj, and the revamped industrial licensing policy, freed many industries from the shackles of regressive licensing controls. The earlier unhealthy regime that fostered monopolies was liberalised and many more businessmen were empowered.
