More sectors

@Human3015: In order for the dispute tag to be removed from the "sectors" section, I suggest you to add two more items with brief explanation. You can expand them more later. Removing the expansion tag is necessary for keeping on the DYK process. Mhhossein (talk) 04:32, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Mhhossein: Thanks for your suggestion. I have made changes suggested by you. I added 2 more sectors. Also done some copy-edit. What do you think now? Does any improvement is needed? Or can you write new review at DYK at the end of all discussion there, as I have added some more references so you can check for any copyvio. --Human3015^TALK 13:38, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The major monetary source for economic development in India?

The first sentence of the lede currently reads, "Foreign direct investment (FDI) in India is the major monetary source for economic development in India." It's the major source? I don't see a source supporting this, and the sentence implies that FDI is the primary monetary source for Indian economic development. I've accordingly placed a {{disputed inline}} tag on the sentence. Kevin (aka L235 · t · c) 14:18, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Economic Times link

In reference 2, the Economic Times link leads to an insecure connection. I believe the article is now at https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/indicators/how-the-indian-economy-changed-in-1991-2011/articleshow/9339258.cms . Should it be changed or archived?
