Congress says stage being set for UPI transaction fee; asks if move aims to appease US firms, Trump

The Congress on Tuesday questioned the government’s notification on UPI transactions, claiming that the stage was being set for users to eventually pay a fee for such transactions. The party also asked whether the move was aimed at opening up digital payments to American firms to “appease” US President Donald Trump.

The opposition party alleged that the government has yet again shown a complete lack of honesty and transparency and has broken the trust of users.
