Claim: Congress President's approval is required to use funds from PMNRF.
Fact-check: Congress President's approval is not required to use funds from PMNRF - FACTLY
Verdict: no such approval is required. on the pmnrf website, it can be read that the disbursement out of the fund is made at the discretion of the prime minister. previously, the fund was managed by a committee , but in 1985, all the powers were transferred to the prime minister. hence the claim made in the post is false.
