GDP growth to top 8% on monsoon, reforms: Panagariya 
A good monsoon, reforms, and the government's timely decision-making could push India’s growth over the 8% mark in the subsequent quarters of this fiscal, NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman Arvind Panagariya has said. India’s growth rate had slipped to a six-quarter low of 7.1% in the April-June period, which was attributed to slow performance of mining, construction, and farm sectors.
