For the first time in history, India is in the grip of recession: Rahul Gandhi


New Delhi:
 Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi has once again targeted PM Narendra Modi regarding the Indian economy. Rahul Gandhi tweeted on Thursday, India is in the grip of recession for the first time in history.

Modi's action has transformed India's strength into weakness. Rahul Gandhi has also shared a news with his tweet, quoting the Reserve Bank of India that at the end of the first half of the year 2020-21, India may be reeling for the first time in history.

Let us know that an official of the Reserve Bank of India has informed that the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in the second quarter (July-September) of the current financial year is estimated to decrease by 8.6 percent compared to a year ago. In this way, the country is engulfed in recession for the first time with GDP declining for two consecutive quarters.

RBI has already projected that GDP could fall by 9.5 per cent in the current financial year. The study report prepared by RBI researcher Pankaj Kumar said that India has technically gone into economic downturn for the first time in its history in the first half of the year 2020-21.

Significantly, Rahul Gandhi targeted the central government on the occasion of completion of four years of demonetisation. He had said that this decision has hurt the poor and the capitalists have benefited a lot. Rahul Gandhi said that the decision of lockdown was also not taken at the right time. This led to a mass migration of migrants. At the same time, the economy was deeply hurt.
