Section 7 of the Reserve Bank of India Act

Section 7(1) of the RBI Act says: "The Central Government may from time to time give such directions to the Bank as it may, after consultation with the Governor of the Bank, consider necessary in the public interest." Section 7(2) gives the government powers to entrust the running of the RBI to its board of directors. But, RBI is of the opinion it breaches the autonomy of Central Bank.
