New Delhi: Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi on Friday questioned the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for its economic policies and thus keeping it’s pressure on the economy even in the face of a discourse dominated by the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, 2019.
She tweeted: “Inflation has reached the highest level in the last three years. Common men are finding it extremely tough to buy materials that are needed for day to day life.”
“Income is zero due to the slowdown caused by BJP’s economic policies. But the Prime Minister of the country is silent on this.”
India’s economy has in the past few months seen a particular slowdown with GDP projections tumbling to 5 percent and reports of job losses.
Soaring onion prices have only added to the government’s worry.
