New Delhi, (thestates.news)
A day after the Reserve Bank of India said GDP
could contract further this year, Congress leader and former finance Minister P
Chidambaram on Saturday said the RBI should bluntly tell the government to take
fiscal measures to protect the economy.
In a series of tweets, Chidambaram said that even
after RBI statement, PM Modi and Finance Minister Sitharaman were lauding
themselves on the Rs 20 lakh crore relief package that has fiscal stimulus of
less than 1 per cent of GDP.
”Even after RBI’s statement, is the PMO India or N
Sitharaman lauding themselves for a package that has fiscal stimulus of less
than 1 per cent of GDP? RSS should be ashamed of how the government has dragged
the economy into negative growth territory. (uni) (mediasaheb.com)
