Mayawati slams Centre over UPI fee, calls it 'capitalist profiteering attitude'
Bahujan Samaj Party leader Mayawati criticised the government's decision to levy a fee on the Unified Payments Interface, describing it as a profit‑driven, capitalist approach. She argued that the additional charge places an undue financial strain on users, likening it to a tax, and said the public is overall reluctant to accept such a system.
