The Congress on Tuesday attacked the Centre over the depreciating value of the rupee against the dollar and said the only request to Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to stop the rupee from scoring a century.
The rupee appreciated 37 paise to 81.30 against the US dollar in early trade on Tuesday while consolidating in a narrow range and settling 9 paise higher at 81.58 (provisional) against the US dollar on Tuesday.
Addressing a press conference at the party headquarters here, Congress Spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said for the first time in history, the rupee is racing fast towards 82 against the dollar.
