Rahul Gandhi, the Vice President of Congress has always been at loggerheads with PM Modi. Since day 1, he is against demonetization and today he termed the move as “Foolish”.
Today, all opposition parties had gathered near Mahatma Gandhi’s statue at Parliament Complex for protesting against this move, which was announced exactly a month back.
Rahul Gandhi slammed PM Modi because he couldn’t implement it properly, due to which lots of hardships are being caused. Further he said that note ban was only for benefiting a bunch of people, mainly Paytm.
He also said “Who stands to benefit from a cashless economy? Just 4 or 5 companies. The companies are going to charge on every transaction and thus it is for their benefit.”
Modi was seen on the full-page ad of demonetization, one day after announcement and taking a jibe at this, Rahul Gandhi said “If I am allowed to speak in Lok Sabha, I will show to all how Paytm means ‘Pay to Modi’”
Yes, he actually revealed the full form of Paytm and this didn’t go down well with many; however, there were people who supported him too.
Here are the Twitter reactions!
Paytm is Pay to Madam!

Dear Rahul Gandhi,
