After months of criticism for not moving aggressively enough on promises of an economic overhaul, Modi, who led his Bharatiya Janata Party to a landslide election win in May, announced a string of policies designed to kick-start Asia's third-largest economy. Over the past week, Modi has unveiled an overhaul of India's archaic labor laws, freed diesel prices from state control and signed an executive order promising to open India's coal industry to private companies. Modi, on promises that he would re-energize India's stumbling economy, faced a flurry of criticism after his July budget failed to provide new direction. (AP Photo/Saurabh Das, File)
