As can be seen from Figure 2, the non-government GDP growth fell from a high of 9.5 per cent during the period January to March 2016 to a low of 4.2 per cent during the period April to June 2017. Basically, the non-government GDP growth more than halved, in a period of less than 15 months and demonetisation was a major reason for it. Of course, the chart in the BJP tweet avoids this totally.
