In this issue, take a critical look at the complex issues plaguing India’s agriculture sector, which provides maximum employment. Another critical issue is India’s commitment to achieving the net-zero carbon emissions target by 2070, which was made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at COP26 in Glasgow last November.
