"Common people are suffering while Modi Ji is relaxing and spreading lies," Mamata Banerjee said
Accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi for "spreading lies" on the cash ban issue, Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today claimed that Rs 1.28 lakh crore have been lost forever due to the scrapping of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes.
"Shocking that Rs 1.28 lakh crore have been lost forever due to note ban only in 'transactions' in the country, says CMIE, top research body. World-famous Moody's says 'note ban will badly disrupt economic activity'," Ms Banerjee said in a statement here.
"Common people are suffering miserably while Modi Ji is relaxing and spreading lies," she said.
Claiming that the Opposition has united in the movement against the currency ban, Ms Banerjee yesterday said any movement was bound to succeed if people were involved in a massive way.
