DAHEJ (GUJARAT): Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said his Government has been able to tame inflation which had gone out of control before 2014 and no political party could raise the issue during the polls in five states.
Modi also said that after the decision to demonetise high value currency notes, “many lies were hurled, rumours were created” that the economy would disintegrate, but the GDP figures of the last quarter have proved that the country is on the path of “fast-paced development”.
The Prime Minister was speaking at an industry meet organised at ONGC Petro Additions Ltd’s complex here.
“We all know what were the economic challenges faced by the country before the 2014 elections. Inflation had gone out of control,” Modi said.
“You must have witnessed that in the elections held in five states all the political parties hurled whatever allegations they could at us. But during the entire campaign, no accusation was levelled against us on the issue of inflation,” Modi said. (AGENCIES)
