Yashwant Sinha Writes on the “Mess Jaitley Made of the Economy”

Senior BJP leader Yashwant Sinha wrote that he’d be “failing his national duty” if he didn’t speak of the “mess”.

Criticism of Arun Jaitley’s performance as Union Minister of Finance came from an unusual quarter – senior BJP leader Yashwant Sinha.

In a column published in The Indian Express, Sinha wrote that he would be “failing his national duty” if he didn’t speak of the “mess” made of the economy by Jaitley.

Praising Jaitley’s talent and drawing attention to his indispensability in the Cabinet despite him losing the Lok Sabha election in Amritsar, Yashwant hinted that perhaps the Finance Ministry required Jaitley’s undivided attention.

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram said that Congress is happy that Yashwant Sinha has echoed their criticisms of the government.
