This Graph does not need an explanation.. Because the change is so palpable to you on the ground..You are elated & feeling like a super rich

Then Yashwant Sinha given a befitting answer to this graph 📊 Chidambaram too.. And all reputed global financial magazines too! 🤣

First, they love to fudge data, so most convenient thing is to start from a low base 😜

Then wanted to make a cherry pick comparison from 2012 onwards when global oil prices hit all time high & global melt down crippled growth

Any quarterly data between 2003-2012 will result in egg on the face of the great economic reformist Emperor, so keep it out of sight 😜

Read the fine line under the graph 'DESPITE A RECENT SLOWDOWN ' ponder is it a global phenomenon or a self inflicted wound by the Emperor? 😉

It's an admission by the Emperor himself that his Vikas gone mad..

See what FT says!
But believe what IT centre propagates

To need a comparison, the minimum requirement is that everything should be on the same scale. Don't think we are nincompoops & gullibles

I am not an economist & it is my cake to convert the old data to new series for comparison. INC has manpower to do! @divyaspandana pls do it

I am not an economist & so it's not my cake to convert old data to new series. But @INCIndia has manpower. @divyaspandana please do it

I am using my common sense and logic..If your economy is doing well, it's so palpable to you, no need for a propaganda to make you believe 😜

What we are witnessing is a healthy economy on ventilator. Great surgeon wanted to learn surgical lessons on a healthy body w/o any ailments

He made us believed that that is the right way to treat it for the fantasy chronic diseases! So used the butcher's knife & rest is history 😜

PS: I am not saying that Govt can not change the base or methodology. But when do a comparison, make all in the same scale! That is it!
