New Delhi: Merely a day after saying that he stands by the PM because he admires the PM’s spine, BJP’s firebrand Rajya Sabha MP Dr Subramanian Swamy resorted to questioning the PM’s ‘Acche Din’ slogan, on Friday over Twitter.
After PM’s indirect snub to Swamy over Raghuram Rajan row, Swamy said that if he disclosed the real GDP growth figures it will create a furore.
The tweet by Swamy read: “If I apply Samuelson-Swamy Theory of Index Numbers to India’s GDP calculation or RBI interests rates, media will scream anti party activity!” After his tweets constantly eroded support of the top bosses in the BJP, 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 tirade on Twitter continues.
