Bharat Jodo Yatra: On December 14, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan walked together as part of the Bharat Jodo Yatra in Rajasthan.
Videos posted on social media this morning during the Congress yatra’s continuing from Bhadoti of Sawai Madhopur in Rajasthan showed Mr. Rajan and the former Congress president speaking while marching.
Sharing a picture of the two, the Congress tweeted in Hindi: “Shri Raghuram Rajan, former Governor of RBI, with @RahulGandhi ji… The increasing number of people standing up to unite the country against hatred shows that we will be successful.”
The economic slowdown was attributed to the Narendra Modi-led government’s “political and social agenda,” according to Mr. Rajan, a vociferous opponent of demonetisation and other economic initiatives.
In the period from September 2013 to September 2016, he served as the 23rd Governor of the Reserve Bank of India. He served as the International Monetary Fund’s Chief Economist and Director of Research between 2003 and 2006.
