"Listen To Our Voices And Not React Like...": Trinamool's Mahua Moitra To Centre

Trinamool Congress Lok Sabha member Mahua Moitra on Tuesday attacked the government over its claims of economic progress, citing its own data on industrial output. Every February, the government had people believe that the economy is doing great, and that everyone is getting all basic amenities like gas cylinders, housing, and electricity, Ms Moitra said, terming the claims "falsehoods", and added that eight months later, now in December, "the truth comes limping after it." She said the government has said it needs ₹ 3.26 lakh crore in additional funds, over and above the budget estimate.
