Swamy's tweet surfaced on the day when the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) chief was expected to budge to government and industry pressure to cut interest rate with a view to spur economic recovery and mitigate the impact of slowing China on India.

Earlier in Aug 2015 at Jackson Hole, Rajan had mentioned that the Central Bank had cut interest rates thrice in the year and were still in an accommodative mode, this statement have fuelled their hopes of a rate cut.

Even Finance Minister Arun Jaitley last week asserted that common sense says the interest rates should come down. Jaitley had said inflation is "very much under control" and the country is better prepared than most emerging economies to weather the global economic turbulence.
