India's rupee weakens as other Asian currencies strengthen

The Indian rupee has significantly weakened against the US dollar over the past decade, contrasting with the strengthening of several other Asian currencies. Despite India's strong GDP growth, the rupee has declined, with economists questioning this disconnect. External shocks and continued dollar outflows have further pressured the currency. Meanwhile, countries like Malaysia, Thailand, China, and Singapore have seen their currencies strengthen due to factors like trade surpluses and foreign investment.
