    Discord between UPA Government and Subbarao becomes public
    Credits:
  • Dr. Subbarao's memoirs recount multiple instances of fundamental disagreements between RBI and UPA Government.

    In 2012, post RBI's policy statement, Subbarao's memoirs reference a 'public rebuke' by then Finance Minister, P. Chidambaram, which significantly deviated from protocol: an endorsement of RBI Monetary policy by Governmentt.

    The tacit understanding to keep such differences private was set aside and fault lines were now in the open.

    World Bank

  • Dr. Subbarao's illustrious career comprised of working with the World Bank for nearly a span of two decades. He was also deputed as the 'Lead Economist' from 1994 - 2004. Subsequently, he was taken on board on PM Manmohan Singh's Advisory Council.

    Asserting RBI's autonomy: Price to be paid?
  • Dr. Subbarao's memoirs contain an entire chapter 'Walking Alone' on disagreements with the former Finance Minister. One such instance refers to the disagreement over reduction in the CRR as per the policy review in June 2013.

    The fallout of this disagreement was evident in the Government's refusal to extend the tenures of two Deputy Governors despite the RBI Governor's strong recommendation.
