The BJP presented latest economic data on Tuesday to claim that not only is the economy of the country back on track but is on an upward surge. BJP's spokesperson for economic affairs Gopal Krishna Agarwal cited GST collections of October among other indicators to reiterate his party's position that India is still on course to become a 5-trillion-dollar economy by 2024.

"Some figures for October show that India's economy is moving in the right direction. The October, 2020 collections of GST have been above Rs 1 lakh crore. This indicates that our economy is back on track," announced Agarwal in a BJP press conference.
