Indian Rupee Vs the US Dollar since Independence

It is such headlines over the past fortnight that have nudged me into finding out how the exchange rate between the INR & USD has changed since Independence.

To do that, I noted the info available and plotted the same on a chart .....

What is startling that till 1975 the exchange rate was 10 ! In the last year 38 years, the Rupee has fallen over 469% ! Wow....and here are talking about India's economic might and laughning upon EU & US ecomomies slowing down !

The economic brains using up tax-payers money like Montek Singh, the PM himself, the Members of so-called Planning(?) Commission..

• Shri B. K. Chaturvedi
• Saumitra Chaudhuri
• Dr.(Ms.) Syeda Hameed
• Dr. Narendra Jadhav
• Prof. Abhijit Sen
• Dr. Mihir Shah
• Dr. K. Kasturirangan
• Sh. Arun Maira

 and more....! Can we have someone just use plain common-sense and get our Nation going !
