Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said that the government has the best fiscal record and even this year the fiscal deficit will be maintained. He was speaking at a function organised by a private TV channel here.
Defending his government’s demands from the Reserve Bank to address certain issues including liquidity or fund problem in certain sectors, he said there is no threat to the autonomy of the central bank.
The finance minister said these funds are not needed for funding fiscal deficit or government expenditure for this year till the month of May.
