RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan meets Arun Jaitley
New Delhi, June 30 (IBNS) Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Raghuram Rajan on Thursday met Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in the national capital, fuelling some speculations since Rajan had earlier announced not to seek a second term amid an attack on him by BJP MP Subramanian Swamy.
