Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday alleged that this is the biggest stock market scam and demanded a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into it. However, the BJP has retaliated on this. BJP leader Piyush Goyal said that Rahul Gandhi has still not recovered from the defeat in the Lok Sabha elections. Now he is conspiring to mislead the market investors. Today India has become the fifth largest economy.
Goyal clearly said that the absurd allegations made by Rahul Gandhi against BJP and our leaders in the press conference today clearly show that Rahul Gandhi has not been able to overcome the disappointment of the opposition’s defeat in the Lok Sabha elections. Now Rahul Gandhi is conspiring to mislead the market investors as well. He claimed that today the whole world accepts India as the fastest growing economy. Modi ji has assured the country that in his third term, the country will become the third largest economy of the world.
The BJP leader clearly said that Rahul Gandhi seems to be upset with Modi ji’s third term. That’s why he (Rahul Gandhi) is trying to confuse foreign and domestic investors with his statements. He said that for the first time in the last 10 years of Modi government, our market cap has exceeded 5 trillion dollars. Today India’s equity market has joined the market cap of the top 5 economies of the world… We know that the market cap of PSUs listed in the market has increased 4 times under the Modi government.
BJP leader Piyush Goyal says, “10 years ago when the UPA government was in power, India’s market cap was Rs 67 lakh crore… today the market cap has increased to Rs 415 lakh crore…” Rahul Gandhi on Thursday alleged that the biggest scam in the stock market happened due to the advice given by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah to buy shares and then the false exit polls after the elections, in which investors lost Rs 30 lakh crore. He said that a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) should be formed to investigate the role of the Prime Minister and Home Minister and those who conducted the exit polls in this criminal act.
Rahul Gandhi told reporters, for the first time we noticed that during the elections, the Prime Minister, Home Minister and Finance Minister commented on the stock market… then on June 1, false exit polls came. He claimed that BJP’s internal survey was predicting 220 seats, but the exit polls showed more seats. Rahul Gandhi said, on June 3, the stock market broke all records, on June 4, it went down with a bang. Thousands of crores of rupees were invested. Retail investors lost Rs 30 lakh crore. He questioned why the Prime Minister and Home Minister advised investment? Why were five crore investors advised to buy shares? Who are the foreign investors who benefited? The Congress leader said that this stock market is the biggest scam and a criminal act and a JPC should be formed to investigate this matter. Rahul Gandhi said that the role of the Prime Minister, Home Minister and those conducting the exit polls should be investigated in this.
