Demonetisation GST shot economy in the chest Congress’s Gourav Vallabh

Reacting to Minister of State (MoS) for Labour, Santosh Gangwar’s statement that there were ample jobs in-country for which enough skilled workers were absent, Congress party’s national spokesperson Gourav Vallabh said this was not an unexpected remark, and was in line with such responses by many others including Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Union Railways Minister Piyush Goyal. Vallabh added that the demonetisation and GST bullets shot the economy in its chest, and pressed on his party’s demand from the government to bring a white paper on the state of the economy.
