Solution

It is true that CAD can be managed through import substitution. Import substitution implies that domestic goods are substituted for imported goods. Example: We can cut imports by shifting from allopathic drugs to ayurvedic drugs. This will help us save foreign exchange. Accordingly, CAD can be brought to manageable levels.
