About the event
There are wide variations in the number and quality of employment generation in India, which largely stems from the data one uses to estimate these figures. Two prominent researchers in this field, Surjit Bhalla and Santosh Mehrotra, with differing opinions, will come together to present their views and concerns, and take questions from the audience.
