The sale of the 29th tranche of electoral bonds started on November 6 amidst Assembly elections in five States— Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Telangana and Mizoram.
This round of electoral bonds comes in a short interval of about a month after the 28th phase, which opened for sale on October 4.
The government approved the issuance of the latest round of electoral bonds, days after the Supreme Court reserved its verdict on a batch of petitions challenging the validity of the electoral bonds scheme for funding political parties.
