Lucknow | BSP chief Mayawati on Saturday expressed concerns over the slowdown of the economy, and said threat of an “economic recession” is looming over the country.
“In the midst of serious issues like widespread unemployment, poverty, price rise, illiteracy, health, tensions/violence, the threat of an economic recession is looming over the country,” she tweeted.
देश में व्यापक बेरोजगारी, गरीबी, महंगाई, अशिक्षा, स्वास्थ्य, तनाव/हिंसा आदि की चिन्ताओं के बीच अब आर्थिक मन्दी का खतरा है, जिससे देश पीड़ित है। व्यापारी वर्ग भी काफी दुःखी व परेशान है। छटनी आदि के उपायों के बाद वे आत्महत्या तक को मजबूर हो रहे हैं। केन्द्र इसे पूरी गंभीरता से ले।
