West Bengal Finance Minister Amit Mitra highlighted Statistics and Programme Implementation Ministry data that stated the estimated Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of India to be 4.18 percent and the Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) of West Bengal to be 7.26 percent to show that the state was performing better than the rest of the nation.
Dubbing Amit Shah the “henchman of the tourist gang”, the Trinamool leader wrote: “#FactCheck of the speech made in Bengal by the henchman of the ‘tourist gang’. Seven pieces of concocted, false info in one speech. Actually, by his standards, quite low!”
The prime minister also kick-started the Poshan Maah recipe contest along with the Poshan Maah nutrition campaign and asked people to share recipes of healthy, nutritious dishes on the My Government website.
