Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: C

Explanation

The book "From Dependence to Self-Reliance: Mapping India’s Rise as a Global Economic Power" is written by Dr. Bimal Jalan, the former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Released in late 2022, the book traces India's economic journey from the post-independence period to the present day. It highlights the transition from a period of heavy dependence on external aid and imports to a more self-sufficient and resilient economy. Dr. Jalan provides insights into policy shifts, governance challenges, and the potential for India to become a leading global economic power. Bimal Jalan served as the RBI Governor between 1997 and 2003. Other figures mentioned, such as Raghuram Rajan and C. Rangarajan, are also distinguished economists and former RBI Governors but have authored different works (e.g., Rajan's "I Do What I Do" and Rangarajan's "Forks in the Road").
