New Delhi: The dispute over China on the Ladakh border is being handled by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Ministry of Defense. The controversy could be worrying for the finance ministry. “But we will not allow it to have an impact on the economy,” said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. This was stated by the Minister of Finance in an interview on various issues of the economy in the current situation. “It simply came to our notice then. From GST collection to car and two-wheeler sales, exports, FDI arrivals, foreign exchange reserves. “Even though all this is positive, we have to wait until the numbers are even stronger.” Some people saw the improvement in October differently. Similarly, one can say that the improvement that will come in November is due to Diwali. “After all these exceptions, there is a need to see improvements in demand,” he said. Asked if there were plans to provide free foodgrains to the country’s poor after November, the finance minister said it was not yet available. He spoke in support of the US Alliance, but said that maintaining some independence was important for India.
