The BJP MP and city Mayor Balkrishna Shukla criticized IMF(International Monitoring Fund) for projecting India's GDP at over 9 per cent in 2011 and presenting rosy picture of Indian economy without taking ground reality into consideration.
He alleged that IMF has been doing it to keep country under its debt trap. Yogesh Patel, parliamentary secretary to chief minister Narendra Modi and BJP MLA from Raopura Assembly constituency criticized agriculture minister Sharad Pawar for requesting the Prime Minister to "reduce his burden".
Patel said Pawar has totally failed on agriculture front and by making request to the Prime Minister, he wants to escape from the responsibility.
