PM Modi has decided to prostrate before Trump: Rahul Gandhi on 'UPI tax'
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has asked Prime Minister Modi to roll back what he calls a 'UPI tax'. In a video on X, he said the PM should stop 'lying down' before the US and stand up. This is an opposition claim, so no official rule change is confirmed. Until a notification comes, business owners should keep accepting UPI payments as usual and not change anything.
