Congress or the Indian National Congress (INC) is one of two major political parties in India. It was founded in 1885 and played a leading role in India’s Independence movement. It has ruled during most of India’s independent years and gave the country its first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Leadership of the Congress too has been dominated by the Nehru-Gandhi family.
The Congress is a center-left party, and lists on its website democracy, nationalism, secularism, inclusive growth and social justice as its core values. It last ruled India between 2004 and 2014, but has since lost its sway, being reduced to just 52 seats in the 2019 General Elections. INDIA, the alliance headed by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, was an attempt to bring together opposition parties against the BJP government for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Together, the INDIA Alliance secured 238 of the 543 seats in the Lok Sabha. The Congress won 99 of these.
He is not a political economist, only a Congress politician to put up such an absurd, baseless and facts twisting argument…. It is only common sense to know that majority of Indians have entered the formal economy thanks to the financial inclusion plan under Jan Dhan Yojana and UPI, which explain the increase in gold loans under formal channels and correspondingly decreased under pawn broking.
Dear Print,
This article stands in contradiction to your proclamation of unbiased journalism.
This author is an ultra left communist .
His language is vitriolic to say the least.
Utterly disappointing.
Vin
Reckless and biased article. The bitterness oozed by the author is clearly visible. The publication seems to promote yellow journalism by promoting such inflammatory viewpoint. We also heard PM speech, there is nothing what this author tries to insist upon.
Dear Print,
How you are publishing these type of articles in your Paper. How this author can say modi taken the gold which is mortgaged in bank for peoples requirements. He should not see the value of mortgaged gold because gold values increased recent years abnormally, Gold import also have the impact of COVID19.
Mr. Chakravarti forgot that when you use gold as a lien, you still own it. Rahul Gandhi instead by way of X-ray wants to know about your assets and redistribute it
Yesterday’s article is a skewed opinion on the fact. people are pledging gold , taking loan, doing business as the amount of loan is high due to increase in gold prices.
Please check the demand for Gold in the March qtr when the rates have risen
Please check the delinquency in gold loans.
You seem to be a very intelligent man but what is the use of intelligence when it us not for the greater good of your Community and focused only on your personal targets and believe me you will not be able to run from the consequences.
