Naushad Forbes: 9-10% economic growth essential for job creation

Even as the government expects the country to clock optimistic growth rate of close to 8 per cent, the newly elected CII President, Naushad Forbes believes that it might not be sufficient to create enough productive jobs to keep the gears of the economy well oiled. In an interview with Pranav Mukul and Sandeep Singh, Forbes said that while job creation is a concern, 9-10 per cent growth rate is desirable as a lot of employment is created when the economy grows at that rate.
