Terming the condition of Indian economy as “serious”, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh today said though the new government is working to bring the situation back on track, it will take some time to do so.
“The economy has derailed and its in a bad shape and serious condition. The government is taking measures to bring it back on the track,” Rajnath told reporters on a question regarding economy and inflation during a programme here.
He said the government was working in this direction and it would take time for the economic condition to improve.
The Union Minister said the government was taking concrete steps to tame inflation.
Stressing that revival and cleansing of major rivers were among the top priorities of the Narendra Modi government, Rajnath Singh cautioned that if “we failed to save and protect our rivers then our civilisation will be in a grave danger.”
He reiterated his commitment to make the Ganga and Gomti rivers clean and said it was an “irony” that people were drinking bottled water and have dumped ‘Gangajal’ (Ganga water).
