The Economic Freedom of the
States of India report 2013 has shown that the Narendra Modi-helmed Gujarat remains at number one. This is an index that
measures governance, growth, citizens' rights, and labour and business
regulation among the country's 20 largest states. Equally, Bihar
gets a huge vote of affirmation for the work done by Nitish Kumar since he took
over as chief minister (CM) in 2005. The report states that Gujarat
has widened its lead at the top of the economic freedom table with an index
score of 0.65 (on a scale from 0 to 1.0) while Tamil Nadu remains in second
position with 0.54.
The annual report estimates
economic freedom based on data for 2013 using a methodology adapted from the
Fraser Institute's Economic Freedom of the World (EFW) annual reports. The
three states recording the fastest improvement in economic freedom have been
among the fastest-growing states.
