New Delhi, Sep 27 (IBNS): Reacting to veteran BJP leader Yashwant Sinha's criticism of Union finance minister Arun Jaitley, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said that it is Sinha's frustration that is doing the talking, according to media reports.

Sinha had sharply criticised Jaitley and the state of Indian economy, saying that Arun Jaitley made a mess of the Indian economy.

While Sinha has been supported by Congress leader and former finance minister P Chidambaram, ministers of the central government have opposed Sinha;s claims.

Home Minister Rajnath Singh was quoted by the media as saying that the Indian economy is the fastest growing economy in the world and the country's credibility has been established under the Modi government.

Railway Minister Piyush Goyal too reiterated that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India is a strong economy, media reported.

Several BJP members have claimed that Sinha's opinion is based on wrong facts, media reported.
