India to take up currency devaluation issue at G20 The recent shocks in the global economy triggered by the Chinese devaluation of yuan and its economic slowdown are likely to dominate discussions in the two-day meeting of G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors. Currency devaluations at a time when the global demand is sluggish is a major threat to stability in the global economy. It said the attempt here would be to analyse the situation and consider collaborative measures like developing the global safety nets to protect countries from negative spillovers. European Markets Celebrates Draghi's Birthday ECB Governor, Mario Draghi, who celebrated his 68th birthday, has hinted an increase in existing quantitative easing programme of 60 bn per month to support the European economy.

On the other hand, the EUR/USD pair, which spiked to 1.17 levels last month, witnessed heavy selling as pair tested the key levels of 1.1100. Government to invest Rs 8.5 lakh crore in railways Sharpening focus on infrastructure development to boost growth, government will invest Rs 8.5 lakh crore in Indian Railways to change the face of the sector Minister of State for Finance Jayant Sinha said. He also appealed to the opposition parties to help pass the GST bill that will usher in a new indirect taxes regime in the country, boosting business activity. After a decade of chronic under investment in Indian Railways we have decided we will invest Rs 8.5 lakh crore in Indian railways alone. This is extraordinary and will change the face of railways in India. Also, investment in roads has been doubled this year.
