NEW DELHI, JULY 15 (UNI) The Congress on Friday slammed the Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre over the falling rupee and asserted that it will further ‘worsen’ inflation.“A falling rupee impacts every citizen of the country. It is going to raise prices further.
Prices of essential items like gas, cooking gas, diesel, and petrol will be dearer. Electronic items are going to be very costly. It will also affect the domestic household budget,” Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said at a press conference at the party headquarters here. Attacking the ruling dispensation, she said,
” The government has to wake up and look into it be- cause people are reeling under price rise. The government, as always, Seems directionless.
“Before 2014, Narendra Modi falsely claimed that a ‘strong PM’ is necessary for the strengthening of the rupee.”
