Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has failed to ensure the economic development of India, claimed DMK MP Dayanidhi Maran, on Wednesday, March 27, 2024.
After filing his nomination papers at the Greater Chennai Corporation’s Zone 8 office, he told reporters that in 2014, when Prime Minister Modi assumed office, India’s GDP was ₹100 lakh crore. “In 10 years, it should have doubled. In 2024, when the PM’s 10th year ends, it should be ₹200 lakh crore. But the GDP now is ₹167 lakh crore. The Modi government has failed to ensure the economic development of India.”
Mr. Maran, the sitting MP of the Chennai Central Lok Sabha constituency, is contesting once again for the seat in the upcoming general elections.
