Youth Cong holds 'shirtless' protest against 'privatisation of railways'

IYC activists were detained by the police

In a "symbolic" protest on Friday, the Indian Youth Congress (IYC) protested shirtless against the 'privatisation' of the Indian Railways at their headquarters in the national capital.

"Since the present BJP led NDA government came to power in 2014, many government PSUs and otherwise government-held assets have moved towards privatisation. The anti-poor government at the Centre has also consistently moved towards privatisation of Indian Railways, which will gradually lead to the railway becoming unaffordable for the common man," stated the official IYC press release.
