Maintaining ample liquidity at a time when the deficit is rising is a huge challenge, but the central bank is confident that it is up to the task. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) says it will use a combination of monetary and debt measures to maintain government borrowing and to spur investment and demand. RBI Governor Duvvuri Subbarao said that one could expect an economic turnaround later this year.

Here is a transcript of Subbarao's views on issues like government borrowings, financial markets and the economy.

On government borrowing:  

Large government borrowing is going against the low interest rate environment that the RBI is trying to maintain to spur investment demand and keeping with the monetary policy. RBI will continue to use a combination of monetary and debt measures to maintain government borrowing to ensure its successful completion in a smooth manner.

On financial markets:

The financial markets, particularly banks, had continued to function normally. Taking a cue from the RBI monetary easing, most banks have reduced the deposit and lending rates.

On economy:

As the monetary and fiscal stimuli work their way through and if calm and confidence are restored in the global markets, we can see eco turnaround later this year.
