Former Reserve Bank of India Governor Raghuram Rajan spoke to NDTV's Prannoy Roy on a range of challenges in front of the Indian economy today. Dr Rajan said the three biggest problems for the Indian economy today are the agrarian distress, the ailing power sector and the crisis in the banking system.

Mr Rajan's comments come amid a row between the central bank and the government over its autonomy.
