"India Ratings and Research (Fitch Group) has revised India's FY20 GDP growth to 6.7% (six-year low) from its earlier forecast of 7.3%. It expects FY20 to be third consecutive year of subdued growth," according to a Congress party tweet.
"After looting the RBI, the least this govt can do is inform taxpayers how their money will be used. Unfortunately asking BJP to be transparent is like asking BJP to fix the economy - Impossible. #UnfitGovtUnfitEconomy," said another tweet on the party's social media handle.
The tweet was accompanied by a meme that depicted a change in the RBI seal with the image of the tiger being replaced by a dinosaur skeleton to drive home the point that the current policies would make the central bank extinct.
Another meme posted by the party showed Modi crushing the rupee with his yoga posture. The meme was accompanied by a Hindi couplet criticising Modi.
The Indian rupee on Thursday opened lower against the US dollar at Rs 71.90. It depreciated further during early trade to Rs 71.95.
The party on Tuesday asked the government to issue a white paper on the economy within seven days.
"The Indian rupee has lost 4 per cent of its value and is currently Asia's worst performing currency," Congress leader Anand Sharma had said in a press conference.
