Explanation
S2 — India poised to become a top economy — is positively linked to S1's claim that liberalisation changed the contours of India's economy, suggesting the later prosperity flows from the earlier change. It neither contradicts nor merely coincides with S1. 'Correlates to the first' captures this linked relationship.
