Anagha Tobi

I am currently an Assistant Professor in Economics at Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Mahindra University, Hyderabad. I have submitted my doctoral thesis in Economics from University of Hyderabad titled, “Economic Growth and Income Distribution: An Assessment of the Development Thoughts in Post-Independent India”. The thesis was an embodiment of Indian Economy, Development Economics, Economics of Growth and Post Keynesian Macro Economics.

I am keen on the areas of Indian Economy, Macro Economics, Development Economics and Classical Political Economy. In future, my interest is to continue researching in these areas.
