Kejriwal questions PM's appeals

Kejriwal told the media that India had faced several crises since Independence, including wars and economic challenges, but such appeals had never been made to citizens on this scale.

"Since 1950, the country has faced many crises, including wars with Pakistan and China and economic crises. Leaders like Lal Bahadur Shastri and Indira Gandhi had appealed to people not to buy gold earlier as well, but no government had made such extensive 'seven appeals' to citizens. The nation is in shock," Kejriwal said.

"I have three requests from the PM. He should tell the nation the condition of our economy today and what is expected in the near future. Today, a lot of rumours are floating in the market and this is not good for confidence in the economy," Kejriwal added. (ANI)
