Speaking at an Interactive Session on `India 2022 - 75 Years of India`s Independence` organised by PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Debroy said: "If the citizens of India desire radical reforms, they should exercise countervailing pressures on Indian government for effective policy making and their conclusive implementation."

He said that larger and wider such pressures are, better and quicker the results will be on policy making be it on any front of economy and environment.
