P Chidambaram, @PChidambaram_IN – Former Union Finance Minister:
- The Finance Ministry has proudly tweeted the below table.
- But it is a confession that several segments of the poor have been completely left out.
- Examples: Tenant farmers, Landless agri labour, Non-agri daily wagers, MGNREGA workers without work, Migrant workers, Self-employed workers, Taxi, auto drivers, Delivery agents, Male Jan Dhan account holders, Petty shop keepers, Street vendors etc.
- The above do not fall under @nsitharaman’s plan and are without any money for the last 21 days.
