‘Debt of Achche Din’: Cong slams Govt over rise in per capita debt
The Political and Business Daily
|July 03, 2025
THE Congress on Wednesday slammed the Centre over the rise in the per capita debt of individual borrowers and said the government is constantly trying to hide the real shortcomings by taking the help of statistics and experts, but the debt burden on the country is at its peak under "Modi Raj”.

Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh shared screenshots of media reports to attack the government.
One media report stated that the average debt of every person in the country has increased by Rs 90,000 in the last two years and the per capita debt of individual borrowers increased to Rs 4.8 lakh in March 2025 from Rs 3.9 lakh in March 2023.
The other report shared by Ramesh said 25.7 per cent of the common man's disposable income is going towards paying EMIs of loans which are non-productive for him in the future.
