India’s Chief Economic Advisor said globalisation has changed.

He said countries will still trade with one another.

However, the very smooth system that connected the world for about 30 years is over.

Companies are also less likely to depend on just one source for supplies.

He said this kind of easy global system may not return for at least one generation.

He spoke at the 16th Indian Management Conclave.

Nageswaran also discussed social media.

He said it can split young people’s attention and put pressure on their minds and bodies.
