Kharge blames government’s ‘rank incompetence’ for steep slide in rupee

NEW DELHI: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday attacked the Modi government over the steep slide in the rupee, and said people want the Indian economy to be saved from their “disastrous policies”.

People are also suffering due to price rise and unabated inflation and their lives have become miserable, he charged.

“Narendra Modi ji, Your government is unable to arrest the steep slide of the ever-weakening Rupee which has breached the 86.50 mark now. The people of India are suffering the massive repercussions of this rank incompetence,” he said in a post on X.
