(Aditya Shaw, Intern Journalist) New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday criticized the central government over demonetization, alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s move four years ago was aimed at helping some of his “industrialist friends” and “ruined” the Indian economy. . Gandhi and Congress have been alleging that demonetization in 2016 was not in the interest of the people and it has adversely affected the economy. The government has repeatedly denied this charge.
Comparison of India with Bangladesh economy
In a video released under the party’s online campaign ‘Speak Up Against Demo Disaster’ to protest against the ban on demonetization, Gandhi said that the question is how Bangladesh’s economy “moved ahead” of India’s economy because there was a time when The Indian economy was one of the highest performing economies in the world. Gandhi said in Hindi, “The government says that the reason for this is Covid, but if it is the reason then Covid is also in Bangladesh and elsewhere in the world. The reason is not Covid, demonetisation and GST are the reasons. ”
Falsely asked to fight against black money
The former Congress president said, “Four years ago, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched an attack on the Indian economy. They had harmed farmers, workers, and small shopkeepers. Manmohan Singh Ji had said that the economy would suffer two percent, and this was seen by us. ” Gandhi said that the Prime Minister had said that it is a fight against black money, but it is not so. Gandhi alleged, “It was a lie. It was an attack on you. Modi wanted to take your money and give it to his 2-3 industrialist friends. You stood in lines, their industrialists were not friends in that line. You put your money in banks and Prime Minister Modi gave that money to his friends and gave them a loan waiver of Rs 3,50,000 crore. ”
