BOKARO: President of Jharkhand Pradesh Congress Committee (JPCC) Sukhdeo Bhagat said that the ‘cashless’ drive launched by BJP will soon turn to be ‘baseless’ drive in Jharkhand as majority of the populace is not internet or computer savvy. Congress’ reaction comes two days after chief minister Raghubar Das’s launching of Cashless Jharkhand campaign from Nagri block of Ranchi.
“Asking people to go cashless is not as easy as what BJP is showing.
Most villagers are unaware about cashless transactions and are not prepared for it. Forcing them to go cashless is like pushing a person into the pond and asking them to learn swimming,” said Bhagat.
Addressing media persons at a private hotel Bhagat said that BJP government is doing everything in favour of capitalists.
