What Congress manifesto actually says about 'wealth redistribution'

Usually, manifestos exist on the sidelines of Indian politics – they are barely even read.

But for this election, the Congress manifesto is creating waves for its programme of social and economic equity. Prime Minister Modi has accused the Congress of wanting to "redistribute" the wealth of Hindus to Muslim – a point that fact checkers have said is false.

The Congress has also been criticised by many for being too aggressively "socialist" and attacking private property.

To explain and unpack what the Congress says about equity and redistribution, for Scroll Ideas, Shoaib Daniyal talks to Praveen Chakravarty, a key member of the party's manifesto committee.
