India should ease law on hiring and firing workers: Panagariya

Former NITI Aayog Vice Chairman Arvind Panagariya has said India should ease norms for hiring and firing workers to make it easier for companies to do business. The government has proposed combining multiple laws governing workers to form four sets of labour codes. What's needed is the reform of labour laws and not just streamlining of existing ones, Panagariya added.
