Rahul Gandhi takes dig at BJP over reports of 50-pc rise in its income
New Delhi, (PTI): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a swipe at the ruling BJP on Saturday over reports of its income rising by 50 per cent through electoral bonds and asked people about the increase in their earnings.
"BJP's income rose by 50%. And yours?" he wrote on Twitter.
Gandhi also shared a report by an NGO, Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), that said the saffron party's income rose by 50 per cent in 2019-20 with a bulk of donations coming through electoral bonds.
The Congress has opposed the electoral bonds, alleging that it helps the party in power.

Businessman burnt to death as moving car catches fire in Noida

According to police, the victim was identified as Rajkumar Singhal, who was engaged in the paint business. The incident occurred late on Monday night near Sorkha village under the Sector 113 police station area.
Station House Officer Krishna Gopal Sharma said Singhal was driving towards Parthala Chowk when his vehicle suddenly caught fire for reasons yet to be ascertained.
Singhal was unable to get out of the car and died in the blaze, the SHO said.
Fire tenders reached the spot after receiving information, but the car had already been gutted, police said. The body has been sent for post-mortem examination and an investigation is underway.
Police suspect the presence of paint or other inflammable material in the car may have caused the fire to spread rapidly.
