The Congress on April 4 alleged that the nation has had to pay a price as the BJP’s “compulsion” to get donations at all costs prompted the government to come up with the electoral bond scheme despite the Reserve Bank of India’s advice against it.
Congress General Secretary (Communication) Jairam Ramesh made these remarks on The Hindu news report on Thursday that pointed out how 33 loss-making firms donated electoral bonds worth ₹576.2 crore, out of which 75% was enchased by the BJP.
