Raise questions on centre's performance, not on integrity: Rajnath

TIL Des/National/Lucknow/Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh has said while there could be a debate on the performance of the BJP-led government at the centre, no one could raise a question on its integrity and intention.

After inaugurating a number of projects in Lucknow, he said, “There is no need to tell anyone as regards how our government is running the country. There can be a debate on whether more work has been done or less, but no one can raise a question on the integrity and intention of the government.”

Mr Singh also added that “no one has been able to gather the audacity of levelling corruption charges, involving even a single paisa, against any of our ministers”.

Stating that economists all over the globe had started believing that India was the fastest growing economy in the world, he said, “At this point of time, the GDP growth rate is 7.5 per cent. Global experts have expressed confidence that in the coming years, it can touch double digits.”

Stating that the pace of laying new railway tracks in the country had gone up by four times since the government took over in 2014, the home minister said, “A target has been set to run all the trains using electricity by 2022. This will save around Rs. 11,000 crore.”
