Gandhi made the remarks in his speech at the Congress Parliamentary Party meeting here.
"Manmohan Singhji, who in his economic wisdom saw 2 per cent damage by demonetisation... I don't know what mathematics he did, what calculations he did, but it turned out that it was the most precise, better than pretty much any other economist, so we thank him for that," Gandhi said.
