New Delhi,
The Congress on Tuesday said the Economic Survey is laced with “excuses of non-performance” as it blames Covid, Russia-Ukraine war and global slowdown for price rise and India’s falling GDP, but offers no solutions.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the government is always making tall claims of achieving 8 per cent or 10 per cent growth but has failed to achieve it. Hence, it is all “lies”, he said.
According to the Economic Survey tabled by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Parliament earlier on Tuesday, India’s economy is projected to slow down to 6-6.8 per cent in the fiscal year starting April as extraordinary challenges facing the globe will likely hurt exports.
