Demonetisation and Goods and Services Tax introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi were a well-thought-out strategy for destroying small and medium businesses in the county to clear the way for big players, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Thursday.
He was addressing a public meeting at Chalakudy in connection with the Bharat Jodo Yatra on Thursday.
“Many thought demonetisation was a mistake committed by the Prime Minister without understanding the consequences. It is not true. The PM knew exactly what demonetisation would do to the country,” he said.
