BJP MP Subramanian Swamy levelled six allegations against Reserve Bank of India (RBI) governor Raghuram Rajan. Swamy alleges that Rajan has sent confidential and sensitive financial information around the world using Chicago University’s email ID, publicly disparging the BJP government, and even asked Prime Minister Modi to sack him immediately.
Swamy wrote a second letter to the PM, in which he says that Rajan should have known the “inevitable consequence of rising and high interest rate and his policy was wilful and thus anti-national in intent”.

Swamy alleged that Rajan raised interest rates to force recession on domestic industries, permitted Sharia compliance on financial organisations despite RBI Act not permitting so, continued to hold on to his US Green Card and sent confidential and sensitive financial information around the world.
Rajan, he further alleged, is a member of US dominated Group of 30 which is engaged in defending America’s dominant position in the global economy.
Rajan, Swamy claimed, has been sending confidential and sensitive financial information using unsecured Chicago University email id and publicly disparaging the BJP government.
Recalling how the crisis in Japan and East Asia led to strong dominance of the US in the region, Swamy said:
This is Swamy’s second letter in a fortnight to the Prime Minister.
