The Congress-led UPA Government's policy paralysis is pushing the country towards an unprecedentedd economic crisis, former BJP President Rajnath singh, today said.
Speaking to mediapersons here, singh said the poor and weaker sections of the society are forced to live a life of despair and distress.
'Even the people who belong to higher income groups are feeling the pinch of escalating prices stoked by rampant inflation', Singh said.
Noting that the Centre was clueless, he said 'the incumbent Government at the Centre is completely clueless and its economic mismanagement has taken the inflation to all time highs'.
Inflation coupled with corruption is taking its toll on Indian economy, he said, adding 'the Government has been a big faialure when it comes to dealing with both these issues'.
