Replying to supplementaries in Lok Sabha during Question Hour, he hit back at Gandhi, saying the party only made announcements and not a single coach was made till 2014. Congress government set up a coach factory and from 2008 to 2014, no coach was made. See this is their double standard.New Delhi: A day after Congress leader Sonia Gandhi raised the issue, Railway Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday admitted that the government is moving towards corporatisation of its production units, including Rae Bareli Modern Coach Factory and said that the move will offer jobs, bring investments and ensure growth. Congress created a private company and transferred the entire GST data to it and even majority stake was held by the private companies.Slamming the move to corporatise railways production units, Gandhi on Tuesday had accused the government of selling the countrys assets to private players at a throwaway price.

The issue was raised by Congress leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Wednesday, a day after Gandhi opposed the governments proposal to corporatise Rae Bareli Modern Coach Factory alleging that it was the "first step" towards their privatisation.."Congress-run government didnt do corporatisation but privatisation.It was a rare instance when Gandhi raised an issue during the Zero Hour in Lok Sabha. However, under Narendra Modi jis leadership, we created a government company in September 2018 for this purpose," he said.Responding to the charges, Goyal said the charge by the Congress leader shows the grand old partys "double standards."The production units that are being corporatised will offer jobs, bring investments, ensure growth, make good modern electric and aluminium coaches. We made factory run and 1,422 coaches were made last year by this coach factory, giving employment to a number of people," he said. To make all this happen, we will bring the corporates on board while the government stays the majority stakeholder," Goyal said.""Former Clawfoot Bathtubs Factory finance minister during UPA regime had said that disinvestment and privatisation are useful economic tools.
