Subramanian Swamy now demands removal of CEA Arvind Subramanian

After demanding the government to remove RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan, which resulted in the governor declaring last week of going back to academia after the completion of his tenure on September 3, Subramanian Swamy has found a new target.

The newly elected MP of Rajya Sabha and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader has now targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's chief economic adviser (CEA) Arvind Subramanian who works in the Ministry of Finance (MoF). 

Swamy went on to micro-blogging website Twitter on Wednesday demanding the removal of Arvind Subramanian accusing him of defending American interests, particularly in the pharmaceutical sector.

Swamy said on Twitter:
