In a series of tweets, Jaitley pointed out that it was Manmohan Singh who left behind an economy in slowdown in 2014. He further said policy paralysis and corruption were also Manmohan Singh’s gifts to the Modi government. India was a part of the fragile five during the former PM’s time, Jaitley said in another tweet. “When an Economist turns into a politician, he looses sense of both economy and politics,” tweeted Jaitley. The comments came after Manmohan Singh, in an interview to PTI, found fault with PM Modi’s five-year rule, describing it as “most traumatic and devastating”.
