Claim: Recent news of NITI Aaayog VC comments 'India's economy is in worst phase in 70 years'
Fact-check: Old news clip of NITI Aayog VC's comments on the country's economic situation is being shared as a recent one - FACTLY
Verdict: back in august 2019, niti aayog vc rajiv kumar made these comments speaking about the economic slowdown. addressing a summit, rajiv kumar said, 'this is an unprecedented situation for govt from last 70 years have not faced this sort of liquidity situation where the entire financial sector is in churn & nobody is trusting anybody else'. lately, niti aayog or any of its officials did not make any comments in line with that of the viral post. moreover, earlier this month, kumar opined that 'india is on the cusp of major economic recovery'. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
