Blaming RBI’s hawkish stance as 'singular factor' responsible for economic slowdown, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley underscored that government had pledged to remove entry barriers to business and ensure a competitive tax regime to push manufacturing growth under it’s 'Make in India' programme.
He further asserted that the programme aims at manufacturing low-cost quality products both for domestic as well as export market. This was clarified by the Finance Minister after RBI’s governor, Rajan earlier this month, had suggested that the government should focus on 'Make for India'- in other words, shape manufacturing that is targeted at the domestic market rather than the global market where demand was growing limp.
He also mocked RBI by citing that whether 'Make in India' was made for consumers within India or outside wasn’t’ relevant as consumers across the world were only bothered about purchasing cheap but good quality products.
The Finance Minister highlighted that success of bankers' retreat with Prime Minister Narendra Modi later this week and the 'Make In India' campaign would give required fillip to manufacturing sector.
