Arun Jaitley To NDTV: Congress-Samajwadi Party Tie 'Born Out Of Nervousness' | Read
Union finance minister Arun Jaitley today said the Congress made a "monumental blunder" by opposing demonetisation and its alliance with the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh was "born out of nervousness". With two more rounds to go in the crucial election, the minister scoffed at the possibility of a hung assembly in the state, where the battle has been dubbed the "dress rehearsal" for the 2019 general elections. In an exclusive interview to NDTV, Mr Jaitley said, "The Congress made a monumental blunder... if the country did well in surgical strikes, economy is doing well, why should the Congress question it?"
