Repo Rate Cut Will Help to Increase Demand

RBI has cut the repo rate by 40 basis points to bring it to 4%. It is a good and positive monetary response from the central bank to boost the demand in the economy. Coupled with a moratorium, the rate cut will result in more money in the hands of consumers to spend. Although, for the banking sector, it is not that good news and will have to face the brunt of this decision. The increasing moratorium period will not only have a negative impact on banks’ earnings in the short run but also on the NPAs as well in the long run. Apart from this the government has to get ready to recapitalize the banks in the next two years. At present the government needs to bring the lost confidence back to the people so that they start spending rather than saving for the unseen future.

कोरोना संक्रमण के माइल्ड केसों में डिस्चार्ज नीति में बदलाव

सरकार द्वारा कोरोना मरीज़ों के डिस्चार्ज की पॉलिसी में जिस तरह के बदलाव की बात हो रही है उसे लेकर सरकार को सचेत रहने की आवश्यकता है। कम से कम हड़बड़ी में ऐसा कोई भी निर्णय नहीं लेना चाहिए जो पुरानी गलतियों को दुहरा रही हों! लॉकडॉउन कारण अर्थव्यवस्था को बहुत बड़ी मार पड़ी है परन्तु हड़बड़ी में लॉकडॉउन में छूट देकर सरकारों ने देश को कोरोना के खिलाफ मिली बढ़त को खो देने जैसी गलती की जिसे फिर से दुहराया नहीं जा सकता। जबकि मजबूती और बिना किसी समझौते के (चाहें लोगों और अर्थव्यवस्था को थोड़ी दिक्क्त होती जो अब भी हो रही है) देश में लॉकडॉउन लागू हुआ होता तो आज की तुलना में हालत बहुत ही बेहतर होते। इस तरह हड़बड़ी में आकर देश ने खुद को मजबूत करने एवं दुनिया को बेहतर रास्ता देने का एक बहुत बेहतर मौका खो दिया है!
