    Solution

    The Fully Accessible Route (FAR) introduced by the Reserve Bank of India allows non-residents to invest in specified Government of India dated securities without any investment limits. This scheme was introduced in February 2019 to encourage foreign investment in the Indian debt market and make it more attractive to investors. By removing these limits, the FAR aims to increase the accessibility of the Indian debt market to foreign investors and boost foreign investments in India.
