Patna (Bihar) [India], August 24 (ANI): We will fight against an attempt of turning our democratic India into an East India Company conglomerate, said RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Tuesday.

"Selling Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs), the national wealth of the country to the corporates under the garb of reforms is against the interests of our people and country. This is a sinister plan by NDA government to curtail government jobs and eventually reservations in jobs by privatisation," he said.
