Claim: Prime Minister Modi led BJP government hasn't established a single government company yet sold 23 government companies.
Fact-check: The Modi led BJP government has also incorporated public-sector enterprises along with disinvestments of PSUs - FACTLY
Verdict: since the introduction of the new economic policy in 1991, successive governments have undertaken disinvestment in public sector undertakings. from 1991-92 to 2023-24, disinvestment in public sector enterprises occurred 350 times, raising a total of ₹5,82,326.08 crores. further, between 2014 and 2019, when modi was prime minister, 63 new public sector organizations were created under various ministries. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
