Communist Party of India MP Gurudas Dasgupta raised the issues during zero hour and sought a white paper from the government.

“The economy has slowed down. Production in all sectors has declined… There is unemployment… The government policies are to be blamed for the situation,” Dasgupta said.

“The government should come out with a white paper and it should be debated,” he added.

Associating her party with the issues, Bharatiya Janata Party’s Sushma Swaraj said the next meeting of the Business Advisory Council should fix a date for a debate.
