No economic task force for COVID-19 yet -Priscilla Jebaraj

-The Hindu

Will be set up by PMO or Cabinet Secretariat, says Finance Ministry.

Four days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that a task force would be set up to deal with the economic impact of coronavirus (COVID-19), it has yet to be constituted.

Although Mr. Modi said the task force was to be headed by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, the Ministry says it is not responsible for constituting the body. In fact, some officials said Ms. Sitharaman was unaware of the task force until the Prime Minister mentioned it in his address to the nation on Thursday.

The task force will be constituted by order of the Prime Minister’s Office or the Cabinet Secretariat, not the Finance Ministry, a senior spokesperson told The Hindu. There is no indication on timelines as yet.
