New Delhi: The Congress on Saturday hit back at the Modi government after Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a slew of measures to revive the economy, dubbing them as "cosmetic measures" and said the government was "clueless" over the economy which is in shambles.

Addressing a press conference, senior Congress leader Anand Sharma said, "India's economy is in shambles, we are facing a grave situation but the government with its false promises and its outspoken ministers, is not working towards stopping that." Slamming the Finance Minister, Sharma said, "Sitharamanji just concluded a press conference.

It was disappointing looking at India's economic situation, it was expected that the government would take steps to resuscitate the economy, increase investments, create jobs, and address issue of exports."

The Congress leader said that the Finance Minister did not announce any measures that would address the current economic situation. "The BJP and its ministers lack a vision to revive the economy," he alleged.
