New Delhi: Union minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar hits at Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan a day after he claimed that Pakistan’s economy is better than India. Many Indian Politicians have drawn a sharp reaction amid his comments.
While addressing the inaugural ceremony of the International Chambers Summit 2022, Imran Khan said that despite many challenges, Pakistan is one of the cheapest countries, and is economically better than many countries in the region, particularly India.
“Pakistan is still one of the cheapest countries…they (opposition) call us incompetent but the fact is that our government has saved the nation from all crises,” PM Khan said. Oil prices in Pakistan are cheaper than those in other countries, Imran Khan said at a time when his government is introducing a finance bill in Parliament as part of a condition requested by the IMF. The bill will clear the decks for $1 billion for Pakistan.
In an apparent reply to Imran Khan’s claim, Chandrasekhar tweeted, “Yes bcoz aapke pass Sidhu hain, aur hamare paas sirf fastest growng economy, sabze jyaada unicorn aur FDI hai (Yes because you Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu, but we have fastest-growing economy (India), most unicorn companies and highest Foreign Direct Investment.)”
Congress leader Abhishek Singhvi also reacted to Imran Khan’s claim as he tweeted, “In order to talk up its economic stocks, Imran Khan refers to Pakistan as one of the cheapest countries in the world. Of course, you are when – beg from Saudi, auction your land & resources to China & sell donkeys in order to survive.”
