IMF on reforms

The >IMF insisting on reforms in the Indian labour market reflects the rather reckless attitude of the institution (Oct. 10). The entire world is aware of how labour reforms made against the backdrop of globalisation have created a chaotic situation in many a country. Not a week passes without some form or other of agitation by workers. Such reforms are essentially predatory in nature. Recommending such steps to be taken in India will only hamper the vibrant and result-oriented movement of the working class, and put the country’s growth in pause mode.
