Kharge Slams PM Modi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge launched a strong attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He questioned why, despite promises of creating 2 crore jobs annually, India’s unemployment rate has hit a 45-year high. Why is there a scramble even for a handful of jobs? Who is responsible for 70 exam paper leaks over the past seven years? Will the Prime Minister answer?
Kharge responded to PM Modi’s statements on “guarantees” by saying that Modi’s guarantees are a cruel joke on the 140 crore citizens of India. He urged the Prime Minister to focus on his own policies before pointing fingers at the opposition.
In a post on social media, Kharge wrote that the Modi government is defined by lies, deception, betrayal, loot, and propaganda. He criticized the 100-day action plan, calling it a cheap PR stunt, and argued that in the BJP, the “B” stands for Betrayal and the “J” for Jumla (empty promise).
He accused the Modi government of betraying the public in areas like employment, household savings, and economic inequality. Kharge asked why job promises were left unfulfilled and why unemployment has reached a 45-year high. He added that five lakh government jobs were lost due to privatization, and that inflation has made life difficult for the common people.
Taking a jab at the Prime Minister, Kharge pointed to an increase in train accidents while, he claimed, Union ministers were busy with self-promotion. He accused the Modi government of financial irregularities, the SEBI controversy, and extortion, and stated that the BJP’s biggest financial crime involved electoral bonds.
Kharge questioned what happened to “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” and raised concerns over the rise in crimes against SC/ST communities. He also called promises like doubling farmers’ incomes, providing legal guarantees for MSP, and the Agnipath scheme false assurances.
In conclusion, Kharge urged the Prime Minister to provide accountability for his own guarantees before casting aspersions on the opposition.
