Moments after Prime Minister Narendra Modi finished his opening address at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, the first Indian leader to do so, Congress President Rahul Gandhi asked him to tell the elite group of global CEOs why one per cent of India's rich have cornered 73 per cent of India's wealth.
"Dear Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Welcome to Switzerland! Please tell DAVOS why 1% of India's population gets 73% of its wealth?" Rahul Gandhi tweeted from his @OfficeOfRG handle. He further added, "I am attaching a report for your ready reference."
In his tweet, Rahul Gandhi had also attached the latest international rights group Oxfam survey that showed that the richest 1 per cent in India cornered 73 per cent of the wealth generated in the country in 2017.
