TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said a lot of work was required to bring the country’s economy – crippled by the Narendra Modi regime at the Centre – back to life irrespective of whether the rupee was strong or weak.
Responding to questions at an interaction with media during his ongoing Bharat Jodo Yatra in Adoni, he said BJP’s policies had completely destroyed the strength of India’s economy and it was not just a question of the dollar price.
“Idea of strong or weak rupee, whether it is good or bad… it is actually more nuanced than that. It doesn’t actually work like that. But it is the question of how you look and think about the Indian economy,” Gandhi remarked.
A strong rupee has advantages and disadvantages. Both have to be taken into account, he said. The Wayanad MP noted that job creation in the Indian economy has always happened on the back of small and medium businesses and a strong agriculture sector.
