Introduction is fine, points about forex reserves are also fine.
After that, it will be better if you don’t directly mention yes/no in your opinion first, rather first justify it. Reasons for rise are fine, then mention how forex reserves can be impacted drastically by jump in the import bill(rise in oil prices), lagging exports and continuous outflow of portfolio capital. Also mention it can be impacted by rising concerns about growth outlook, domestic rate cuts and eventual depreciation, and tightening of US monetary policy. Also, investors reassess positions, including global factors, whatever be the reserves’ stock.
Then mention the current example of high inflation causing concerns inspite of low bond yields, borrowing costs and interest rates.
Then you can mention that no level of reserves is a foolproof guarantee for macroeconomic stability or interest rate immunity.
Conclusion is fine. Keep writing. 🙂
