As Lok Sabha Elections are going to be held in 2019, So political leaders are targeting each -other on several issues such as facilities in the state, regarding employment, and economic growth of the country. In the same way, Prime Minister Modi has also targeted the former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh regarding Indian economic growth. PM Modi said Congress ruined Indian economy and led the Indian economy in very bad condition and “unbelievable decay with even the budget figures suspicious”.
After targeting Manmohan Singh, PM Modi added to his statement that when his BJP government came into power since then Indian economic growth is increasing in healthy rate and as of now India is the world fastest growing large economy with strong fundamentals to propel further growth.
PM Modi highly Rejecting disapproval of unemployment added that ”if state after state is creating the good number of jobs, how can the Centre be creating joblessness ?”.
PM Modi also gave a statement on the economy, he said that instead of choosing ‘Rajneeti’, he chose ‘Rashtrapati’ so that he can put interest on India first despite political considerations that are not bringing out a white paper on the state of the economy when BJP’s government came to power.
according to PM Modi in 2014, the economy was very simple and it was beneficial for politics as well and besides this, there were many changes that were needed, so his government worked out on this as he said: “we preferred to think of ‘India First’.”
Modi further added that “We did not want to push the issues under the carpet, but we were more interested in addressing the issue. We focused on reforming, strengthening and transforming the Indian economy,”.
PM Modi further added in his statement that when his government had come into the power and hold the charge, It was very difficult to accept Indian economy in such a worst condition and said “We accepted this uncomfortable truth and hit the ground running from the very first day to stabilise things so that the Indian economy can be strengthened for the long haul. We tolerated a number of political allegations, we accepted political damage but ensured no damage to our country,” and now India is the world’s largest and fastest economy with strong fundamentals to propel further growth. when it is asked about lack of jobs in the economy to PM Modi he said the issue at hand is more to do with a lack of data on jobs.
“Our antagonist will naturally exploit this opportunity to paint a picture of their choice and blame us. I don’t blame our antagonist for blaming us on the issue of jobs, after all, no one has an accurate data on jobs. Our traditional matrix of measuring jobs is simply not good enough to measure new jobs in the new economy of New India,” PM Modi said.
