Indian Economic Policies through the lens of Economic Theories and Models

Policy, by definition, is a course or principle of action adopted or proposed by an organisation or individual that is enacted and enforced at all levels. While policies at the organisation or individual level impact locally, the government policies play a different role. The policies are framed and executed at all levels, including the central government, state governments, and local bodies. Indubitably, these impacts our daily lives. Policies are political, and this is undeniable. Yet beneath the political nature lies economics. Any action or course adopted tends to be explained by an economic concept or principle. Therefore, select any one or more policies at the central, state, or local body level. Identify the financial concept/theory/model that can explain the same. Using the aforementioned theory/concept/model, delve into the policy, thus providing an economic rationale to state governments and the same.
