Sub Swamy questions Modi's Acche Din', threatens to reveal real GDP figures

July 1, 2016

New Delhi, July 1: BJP's firebrand Rajya Sabha MP Dr Subramanian Swamy continues to express his opinion on issues of utmost concern with his 'I care a damn' attitude.

Despite Prime Minister Narendra Modi's indirect snub to Swamy, the BJP MP has raised questions over the former's much publicised election slogan 'Achche Din' and said that if discloses the real GDP growth figures it will create a furore.

Swamy on Friday took Twitter and claimed that if he discloses real GDP figures then it will certainly not go down well within the party and will be seen as an anti-party activity.

Just two months after entering the Rajya Sabha, Subramanian Swamy has been attacking his critics and has taken swipes at Finance Minister Arun Jaitley over RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan's term.

Swamy's caustic and even derogatory tweets have eroded the support of the top bosses in the ruling dispensation and questions regarding his comments have raised within the RSS.

Swamy's fall from grace was reflected in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent remarks about “Vyavastha se upar kisi ko bolne ka haq nahi hai…'' in an interview to a TV news channel.

However, efforts to ensure that he tones down his attacks have not yielded results and the BJP leadership is determined to take disciplinary action if his Twitter diatribe continues.

So why doesn't Swamy give out the real GDP figures.... Is he scared of Modi? Swamy has been ranting about everyone, why doesn't he come out in the open and expose all the corrupt people.

Why can't the BJP can take him on using authentic data and prove Dr. Swamy wrong? Dr. Swamy must be having very good reasons to suspect the official GDP figures and the Government is scared to challenge him. Dr. Swamy would make a better FM if not the PM.

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A 34-year-old fruit and vegetable trader in Mangaluru has reportedly lost ₹33.1 lakh after falling victim to an online investment scam run through a fake mobile app.

Police said the scam began in September, when the victim received a link on Facebook. Clicking it connected him to a WhatsApp number, where an unidentified person introduced a high-return investment scheme and instructed him to download an app.

To build trust, the fraudster asked him to invest ₹30,000 on September 24. The trader soon received ₹34,000 as “profit,” convincing him the scheme was genuine. Over the next two months, he transferred money in multiple instalments via Google Pay and IMPS to different scanner codes and bank accounts shared by the scammers. Between September 24 and December 3, he ended up sending a total of ₹33.1 lakh.

When he later requested a refund of his investment and promised returns, the scammers demanded additional payments, claiming he needed to pay a “service tax” first. Even after he paid a small amount, no money was returned, and the scammers continued pressuring him for more.

A case has been registered at the CEN Crime Police Station.
