1/n
ऐसे कई ट्विटर अकाउंट थे, जिन्होंने बिना पुष्टि किए हुए भरपूर दुष्प्रचार किया कि केंद्र सरकार अब UPI के माध्यम से होने वाले भुगतान पर अतिरिक्त शुल्क लेने जा रही है। लोगों ने यहाँ तक कहा कि ‘ऐसे में डिजिटल भारत कसने बनेगा’?

2/n
NPCI, जो कि UPI की गवर्निंग बॉडी है, उसने एक प्रेस रिलीज जारी करके स्पष्ट किया है कि UPI द्वारा होने वाले भुगतान पर ऐसा कोई भी चार्ज नहीं लगाया जाने वाला है।
