The Centre’s efforts are only directed at “reset” of governments led by the Opposition parties instead of chalking out a road map for the “reset of the economy,” the Congress alleged on Friday.
Referring to the GDP numbers for Q1 FY 2022-23 earlier this week, released by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, Congress spokesperson Gourav Vallabh alleged that while the “headline management machinery” of the government pushed specific data points, a true understanding of “our economic position can only be made once we compare it to pre-COVID levels”
Comparing the Real GDP of first quarter of 2019-20 with 2022-23 at 2011-12 constant prices, Mr. Vallabh argued that the economy had a growth of 3% in the past three years.
