Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi Congratulates Abhijit Banerjee For Noble Prize

Mumbai: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi congratulated Indian-origin economist and academic Prof Abhijit Banerjee on winning the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.

Gandhi said he had helped conceptualize the NYAY scheme of the party, which was a major promise for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

“Congratulations to Abhijit Banerjee on winning the Nobel Prize in Economics. Abhijit helped conceptualize NYAY that had the power to destroy poverty and boost the Indian economy. Instead, we now have Modinomics, that’s destroying the economy and boosting poverty,” Gandhi said in a tweet.
