JAMMU, Sept 3: Senior Congress leader and former Minister, Dr Manohar Lal Sharma while addressing media persons expressed deep concern on the falling value of Indian rupee in the international market.
It is pertinent to mention here that Indian rupee has fallen all time low to 71 rupee against US Dollar.
Dr Sharma said that it is very painful and heart burning moment for 135 billion Indians that our currency is facing grave downfall every day in comparison with US dollar.
“Our nation is already under burden of high unemployment and inflation and as such the fallen rupee value has further worsened the financial health of the nation. The nation is already facing the wrath of high price rise of daily consumable items and now fallen rupee has further worsened the hopeless situation,” expressed Dr Sharma.
He said that instead of focusing on useless issues, BJP and its leadership should introspect its anti people policies and should come out with a corrective measure to deal with the situation.
He further stated that massive price hike of petrol, diese and LPG has broken the backbone of common men of the nation who have voted BJP with high hopes.
Dr Sharma said as to why India is exporting petroleum products to other countries at low price but the same is available at sky high prices for the people of the country.
Dr Sharma termed this inflation as self created problem of BJP Govt due to wrong tax policies by imposing excise duty many times more comparative to previous government.
