Several MPs of the State Great Khural submitted a petition to Speaker Z.Enkhbold for Central Bank's President N.Zoljargal's resignation, on Thursday.

The parliamentarians blame the Central Bank for the Mongolian tugrik's slip against foreign currency. The petition for N.Zoljargal's resignation claimed that the Central Bank failed to take urgent measures against the rising exchange rate and blamed the Central Bank's weak policy during critical economic conditions.

The parliamentarians also claimed  the exchange rate increase is politically motivated and an intentional boost.
