Finance Minister Arun Jaitley attended the India Economic Convention 2015 in New Delhi on Thursday. Taking a dig at the previous UPA government, Jaitley said the political model of governance in India had got skewed up as the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) - the final say in a decision-making process - got marginalised.

"Generation of jobs is the biggest challenge, as a large section of the rural population that is moving to urban and semi-urban centres can get absorbed," said Jaitley at the Convention. Naresh Sharma/Firstpost
