Rising inequality is a concern: Manmohan Singh

Former PM Manmohan Singh has said that rising inequality was a concern and the country cannot allow extreme poverty or economic disparity as it is a welfare state. The ex-PM said India was one of the fastest-growing economies in the world today, but the high rate of economic growth had also been associated with rising inequality, including economic, social, regional and rural-urban inequalities.
