<h1>Congress Criticizes Government's Economic Policies, Cites IMF Report on Sluggish Investment and Decline in Global FDI Share</h1> The Congress party criticized the Indian government's economic policies, citing an IMF report that highlights sluggish private investment growth and a decline in India's share of global Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). The report suggests that inconsistent trade policies and inadequate consumer spending are key issues. The Congress argues that the government's actions, such as demonetization and GST implementation, have worsened economic conditions, leading to reduced quality jobs and increased agricultural employment. To address the economic slump, the Congress advocates for boosting consumption, ensuring policy predictability, and revising trade policies to protect against Chinese dumping.
