If
you read the following two news articles, the links of which I am
giving below, you can also find more such articles by our choice in the
public media domain, the Govt of
India's stand is very clear that the Interest Rate of RBI (the sticky
Repo Rate of 6.5%) should be cut without wait, in the National Interest,
for Growth of Economy and Easing the Burden of Common People with
borrowings that have increased EMIs more than 25% after the Repo Rate of
6.5% was climbed by RBI continuously from May 2022 to February 2023 (from 4% to 6.5%).
Centre, RBI speak in different voices over inflation, rate cuts
In the above article of The Hindu, the Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) of Government of India Mr.
V Anantha Nageswaran is also saying in favour Interest Rate Cut, while
before him the Hon'ble Commerce and Industry Minister Mr. Piyush Goyal
and Hon'ble Finance Minister Ms. Nirmala Sitharaman have spoken up on
favour of the Interest Rate Cut.
With an Unbiased Approach and with "Nation First Matto" while
I have been saying for a long time with first hand
experience/observation of the EMI Burden having been increased more than
25% after RBI Climbed and imposed 6.5% Repo Rate even on the livelihood
borrowings such as Home Loan, Educational Loan and Motor Cycle Loans
and Consumption Loans, as a
Professional, I will prefer to support Government of India taking the
firm stand to cut the Interest Rat in the interest of the Nation and I
will not support RBI in its dogmatic stand taking unduly shelter under
inflation fear.
You may kindly read, in the above news article, what the Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) of Government of India is saying is correct, "Tomato", "Onion" and "Potato"
are driving the Food Inflation in India which is a 40% Component in the
Inflation Frame-work of RBI. The Food Inflation of these few dominating
food products (vegetable) can
not be taken shelter by RBI to run a Highest Interest Rate regime in a
very large Nation such as India, which is affecting the livelihood of
more than 80-Crore Common People to sustain their livelihood out of
borrowing support, over and above, the Industry and Commerce need an
affordable interest to run the Economy in a well-greased condition.
Managing
Inflation is principally the job of the Government of India coordinated
with State Governments who Run the Nation, by creating and managing
appropriate demand and supply conditions for the Economy to move in
right direction and growth. In
between, RBI has got into this area of inflation management in the
Indian Economy, by imposing Highest Level of Interest Rate and holding
unduly into this Encroached Area, as Highest Level of Interest Rate is
not the only tool to control the Inflation, and the Inflation Frame-work
RBI is sticking to by creating it and pushing it aggressively is not
desirable and expected in the National Interest.
In
fact, the RBI Brigade should shed some of its "Autonomy Ego" as they
have been doing like the former British Elephants when they(the
Britishers) ruled India in the past, in the National Interest, and they should march back with the interest rate cut in the interest of the Nation and its People as well as Economy.
If
you read the following News Article I am giving link below you will
find, the RBI Brigade is pushing the Inflation Fear in the Nation,
while it is not justified to do so in the present context and it is
taking a Negative Stand juxtaposed against the Government Stand in
favour of Interest Rate Cut ( that is in the interest of the Nation)
Unchecked inflation can hurt real economy prospects, says RBI report
I
prefer not to listen the undue cribbing of RBI Brigade in the name of
Inflation to hold the Highest Level of Interest Rate in India as said in
the above RBI Report, it is just not done. The
Government of India will be free to act and take the right recourse if
the RBI Brigade keeps sticking to their Dogmatic and Inflation Shelter
as far as the Interest Rate ( Repo Rate) is concerned, to correct it in
the interest of the Nation, that is the Top Priority.
