Continuing his attack, BJP MP Subramanian Swamy said he will “suspend” his demand for sacking the Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) Arvind Subramanian if the government considers him patriotic, despite his past attempts to twist India’s arm.

A day after the government came out in strong defence of CEA Arvind Subramanian, Swamy launched yet another attack on Twitter on Thursday morning.

Swamy caused a flutter when he sought Subramanian’s suspension on Wednesday for allegedly taking an anti-India stance when he was an economist at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington, prior to joining the Union Finance Ministry.

Subramanian was appointed CEA by the BJP government in October 2014 after his predecessor Raghuram Rajan moved to the RBI as Governor in September 2013.
