    Hon. @PChidambaram_IN Ji,challenge accepted.Let’s discuss & dissect back series data.I gave 3 hrs of detailed interview yesterday & it is somewhat disingenuous of you to say that I asked the media to not ask questions. Do give more coherent reasons for ur difficulty with new data
    Replying to @PChidambaram_IN
    I wonder if Niti Aayog Vice Chairman Rajiv Kumar will agree to a debate the data than telling journalists that their questions are "undeserving of an answer".

    I would request the media to stop misinterpreting my statement. The government has been taking bold steps to accelerate our economy & will continue to do so. There is no need to panic or spread panic.

    Yet our import dependence is huge and unsustainable because of Fertilzer imports. So important to promote ‘ZERO CHEMICAL NATURAL FARMING’. Water usage also declines by upto 50%. @PMOIndia @cyrillgutsch @gaspworld @ADevvrat @subhash_palekar @nstomar @myogiadityanath @icarindia
