Privatisation and Deregulation-Irrelevant Hypotheses

Privatisation and Deregulation Irrelevant Hypotheses Kirit S Parikh ASHOK RUDRA in his last hurrah (EPW, December 21, 1991) for the commanding heights in response to T N Srinivasan's Victory speech' shows admirable intellectual agility. But alas, he does not establish what he starts out with and ends with two irrelevant hypotheses. Not that what he writes is wrong but that it does not go far enough. It does not touch the heart of the matter I have always admired Ashok Rudra to be one who does not let his ideology cloud his analysis. Therefore; I am hopeful that he will agree with what I write here.
