The agenda of loan waivers that the Congress party is pursuing is in no way beneficial to the economy as a whole (Page 1, “We will not let PM sleep till he waives farm loans: Rahul”, December 19). Increasing loan waivers will mean a greater fiscal burden on the economy and the government which in turn may slow down GDP growth in the long run. In the pursuit of power, the country’s economic development should not be sacrificed.
