Waste of public money amid economic crisis: U.P. Congress on PM’s birthday celebrations

Uttar Pradesh Congress leaders criticized the central government for spending public funds on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday celebrations. State unit chief Ajay Rai said that 500 bicycles were distributed in Varanasi under a scheme where riders would pay ₹700 each day.
