Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra: No startups in the country, claims Rahul in Gujarat’s Godhra


PTI, Mar 8, 2024, 7:09 PM IST

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday claimed there were no startups in the country and those that did exist were under the control of foreign firms.

Addressing a small gathering in a Muslim-dominated area opposite Godhra railway station as part of his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, Gandhi slammed the Narendra Modi government’s ‘Startup India’ initiative and promised to earmark Rs 5,000 crore to fund the sector if the Congress came to power.

“Have you seen any startups? Are they anywhere to be seen? Not a single one exists. And those which exist are in the control of foreign firms. We will create a Rs 5000 crore fund so that sons of poor farmers and labourers can open their own startups,” he asserted.
