Former Finance Minister P Chidambaram asks questions of NDA Government
- 5 years ago
The Congress on Friday hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his comment that the UPA Government had left behind empty coffers.
At a press conference here, former Finance Minister P Chidambaram, said the BJP/NDA Government needed to come out of 'campaign mode' and 'get on with the business of governance'.
"The world economy is sluggish and there are strong headwinds such as the situation in Iraq. This is a time when hard decisions are required," he said, adding that the UPA, too, had to tackle a crisis when crude oil prices shot up to $147/barrel.
Questioning Modi on what he meant when he said "there is nothing left behind by the previous Government", Chidambaram listed out the cash balance, foreign exchange reserves and outstanding liabilities left behind by the UPA Government.
