Explanation

Mixed economy refers to the co-existence of public and private sectors in economic activity. In India, this means both government-owned enterprises and private businesses operate simultaneously. This model allows the state to control strategic sectors while encouraging private enterprise in others. It's a defining feature of India's economic policy since independence.
