New Delhi: Stroking yet another controversy, senior congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Sunday alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and religious organisation Bajrang Dal takes money from ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence). Speaking to news agency ANI, Singh said, "Bajrang Dal, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are taking money from ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence). Attention should be paid to this. Non-Muslims are spying for Pakistan's ISI more than Muslims. This should be understood."

He also alleged that the non-Muslim community are spying for Pakistan's premier intelligence agency, more than the Muslim community. "Non-Muslims are spying for Pakistan's ISI more than Muslims. This should be understood," he said.

The Congress leader also expressed his dissatisfaction about the recent bank merger announced by the Finance Ministry and about the decline in gross domestic product (GDP) figures for April-June quarter for Financial Year 2019-20 quarter. Singh said the economy has taken a downward trend under the Modi government and there are no jobs and to recover their deficit, they (Central government) have the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

Not just ending it here, Singh also claimed that the people of Northeast eat beef. The Congress leader said that Babar wrote in his will written to Humayun to break temples or slaughter cows. He added that the British slaughtered cows to feed their army. "Members of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and Bajrang Dal do business in the name of cow protection," he alleged.

Even the Congress, last week, hit out at the government, saying the slump in GDP is a "Modi-made disaster", and demanded that a financial emergency be declared in the country. "The truth can no longer be hidden despite "headline management" by the ruling dispensation," the opposition party said.

Sharp deceleration in manufacturing output and subdued farm sector activity pulled down India's gross domestic product (GDP) growth to over six-year low of 5 per cent in the April-June quarter of 2019-20, according to official data released last week.

Global issues had no role play in the slump in GDP, the Congress claimed, adding that a white paper should be released on the "shrinking economy and rising frauds". "GDP growth tanks to 5 pc. Demonetisation, hasty GST, and incompetence continue to show results. Slump is not due to global issues. It is a pure 'Modi-made' disaster," Congress spokesperson Rajeev Gowda tweeted, using the hashtag "ModiHaiToMandiHai"

The Congress said low GDP growth was expected and alleged that the BJP-led central government had single-handedly "murdered" the Indian economy. The party tweeted, "as predicted, GDP growth is lower - 5 pc in Q1 of 2019-20 (lowest in 5 years)."
