Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman addressed the recent weakness in India's stock market during meetings with the World Bank. She stated that the decline is partly linked to the ease with which investors can sell their holdings. Sitharaman also noted that India is not participating in the main artificial intelligence investment boom, unlike Taiwan and South Korea, which have attracted stronger investor interest.
