The professional wing of the Congress party, forming the core of a movement, protested on Friday outside the BJP headquarters at Churchgate against what they claimed was corruption by the saffron party through electoral bonds. With less than 10 members, the All India Professionals Congress (AIPC) courted arrest with their demonstration.

Bonds explained

An electoral bond (issued in multiple values of R1,000, R10,000 and so on) is like a promissory note that any individual or company incorporated in India can buy from select branches of the SBI. The buyer can donate the bonds, purchased digitally or through cheque, to any political party.
