Mr. Zamwar was recently at the National Cooperative Union of India (NCUI) in Delhi for a NAFCUB-NCUI seminar staged to oppose the unregulated deposit Bill being proposed by the government.
Making a strong case for withdrawal of the bill, Zamwar contended the motivation for the bill has come from United Kingdom and the basic difference between the two economies– speculative vs real –has not been considered.
