Addressing a press conference in Delhi on Sunday, Raut said the Prime Minister Narendra Modi is busy trying to bring a BJP government to power in West Bengal while the rupee continues to depreciate in the market.
Raut reminded the Prime Minister of his days as a chief minister, when he had said that a falling rupee hurts the country’s image.
“There will be a century… Abki baar, 100 ke paar. Where is Modi ji? He is in West Bengal, preparing for President’s Rule to defeat Mamata Banerjee. Modi ji and Shah ji are attempting to do ‘khela’ in West Bengal, while the value of the rupee is declining… Modi ji had said that when the value of the rupee falls, the country’s prestige declines. What is it that is falling now?” Raut said, according to an ANI report.
The rupee opened at a record low of 92.89 per dollar on Friday and depreciated further to cross the 93 mark, indicating sustained pressure on the domestic currency.
While speaking to ANI, Raut demanded a resignation from Modi, saying that time has come for him to pick his jhola and leave. "….The Rupee began its downward spiral precisely when PM Modi became the Prime Minister. The PM is still busy in the election campaign and does not care about the rupee. I have only one thing to tell him: 'Modi Ji, ab jhola uthao or chale jaiye," he said.
