Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Monday questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman saying that if they consulted the Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS), a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)-affiliated trade union, before announcing the scheme.
Referring to the nationwide protest to be held by the Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh on September 9 against the Central government over inflation, the Congress leader asked whether BMS, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)-affiliated trade union was consulted before the National Monetisation Pipeline was announced or not.
?If the PM, FM and the ministers are so sure about the merits of the National Monetisation Pipeline, why don?t they first convince the Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS)? BMS is the RSS-affiliated trade union. Was BMS consulted before the NMP was announced?? Chidambaram said in a tweet.
