Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday took credit for the rollback by the government of the budget proposal to tax the withdrawal of EPF, saying his “pressure did work”.
“My pressure did work. Whenever somebody is being oppressed wrongly or victimised, I tend to try and help those people. I had said don't suppress the salaried class, so I think it is a good decision,” he said after the Centre decided to withdraw the proposal.
