Congress has no right to criticise Centre on inflation: FM Nirmala Sitharaman

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sithraman, who cast her vote for Karnataka Assembly polls on May 10, expressed confidence about BJP coming back to power in the State with a full majority and criticised the Congress over inflation during UPA rule.

On the issue of rising inflation, the Union Minister said she and the BJP Government stand with the people and want the prices to come down. Contending that the BJP Government is making efforts to control price rise, she hit out at the Congress saying that it doesn't have any right to criticise the Centre on the issue as inflation was constantly high during its tenure.
