Govt waived loans of capitalist friends, alleges Priyanka
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday alleged that the BJP-led government waived loans, amounting to about Rs eight lakh crore, of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “capitalist friends” and asked why the dispensation was not making the names of the beneficiaries public.
Her attack on the government came a day after the Congress demanded that a high-level panel be set up to examine the process of loan waiver.
“The BJP government has waived loans worth Rs 8 lakh crore of capitalist friends of Modi ji. Why is the government which claims of making the names of the people having black money public is not making the names of these people public? By what process were their debts waived?” Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet.
“When the farmers of our country are burdened with debt, then under which policy did the BJP forgive the debts of its rich friends?” the Congress general secretary asked.
On Saturday, Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala had cited a report by global financial services company Credit Suisse to level the allegations against the government.Impaired assets of banks include both gross NPAs loans that are due for repayment after 90 days and NPAs written off by lenders.
