NEW YORK, September 19 /PRNewswire/ --

- Bloomberg Television Special Explores India's Booming Economy,
Challenges, Opportunities

Next Tuesday on the BLOOMBERG TELEVISION(R) special Inside India,
Bloomberg's Haslinda Amin gives viewers an in-depth look at the challenges
confronting India's expanding economy 60 years after its independence.

Reporting from India, Bloomberg will examine investment opportunities,
the debate surrounding India's special economic zones, India's retail
revolution, the country's developing infrastructure and the trend of "reverse
outsourcing" jobs to the West.

"(India) is attracting foreign investors now. Better infrastructure will
attract more investors and more foreign investments. This process of economic
reforms and economic growth has to continue for at least another 20-25 years
before many of our objectives are achieved," India's Finance Minister
Palaniappan Chidambaram tells Bloomberg's Amin.

In addition to Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram, the program
features interviews with Kamal Nath, Minister of Commerce and Industry, Azim
Premji, Chairman of Wipro Technology, Sunil Mittal, Chairman of Bharti Group,
Tulsi Tanti, Chairman of Suzlon Energy, Nilesh Shah of ICICI Bank and Sanjay
Nayar, CEO of Citigroup India.
