Rahul Gandhi’s scathing tweet on state of economy under Jaitley: ‘Fasten your seat belt…wings have fallen off our plane’

Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi took to Twitter on Wednesday to deliver a caustic denouncement of the Narendra Modi government by saying “the wings have fallen of our plane” so the country needs to fasten its seat belt and “take brace position”.

Rahul was referring to a scathing indictment of the BJP-led government and of finance minister Arun Jaitley by one of the BJP‘s own – Yashwant Sinha, a former finance minister himself. Sinha wrote an article for a leading national daily criticising Modi and Jaitley.

“I shall be failing in my national duty if I did not speak up even now against the mess the finance minister (Jaitley) has made of the economy,” was Sinha’s opening sentence.

Sinha then said, among other things, that demonetisation was “an unmitigated economic disaster” and the Goods and Services Tax rollout was “badly conceived and poorly implemented”.
