one is like a tree, the other is like a tumour.
guess which one economic ‘growth’ is:
Agriculture, which provides livelihoods for some 70% of India’s population of more than 1.1 billion, is forecast to grow by 2.6% in the year to end March, down from 3.8% in the previous financial year, the government’s statistics bureau said.
Industrial growth was also expected to slow slightly.
By contrast, activity in services, trade, hotels, transport and communications industries was expected to expand by 12.1%.
at least agriculture ‘grows’, whereas the manly-pants sectors are ‘expanding’.
