Modi at Agra Rally: People With Chit Funds Doubting Note Ban Move

“Does the country not know whose money was invested in chit fund business?” Modi said while addressing the crowd.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said that political leaders behind multi-crore chit fund scams are attacking him on demonetisation, in remarks that can be viewed as a sharp attack on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

Modi said this while talking at a ‘Parivartan Rally’ in Agra, where he launched his flagship housing scheme ‘Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awas Yojna’. Designed entirely for the rural masses, the ambitious scheme aims to provide affordable houses to all those living below the poverty line by the year 2022.

Hitting out at the Congress, Modi further said that governments in the past 70 years kept quiet on black money issue because they were worried about losing power.
