Speaking on financial restoration, KV Subramanian mentioned, “COVID-19 is not going to impact our fiscal deficit target and disinvestment target.”
Chief Economic Advisor additional mentioned, “the second wave of COVID-19 has affected the momentum of economic recovery. We expect a recovery in the economy from July. Now, States have started removing restrictions and if we speedup vaccination our economy will start recovering.”
