Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge launched a scathing critique against PM Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party on Saturday, alleging that despite the Prime Minister’s failure to fulfill any of his electoral promises, he still claimed significant achievements for the country.
During a press briefing held today, Kharge asserted that the Congress, as a party, consists of individuals who played a pivotal role in securing India’s independence, while emphasizing that the BJP has historically not been supportive of this endeavor.
“He (PM Modi) did not implement even one of what he said (electoral promises). Still, he says that Modi did a lot of work for the country. Congress is a party of those who made India independent. The BJP never fought for the independence of India or the development of India. We built this country. They (BJP) speak so much about patriotism that Nehru is nothing before them, Indira Gandhi is nothing before them and Lal Bahadur Shastri is nothing before them–Modi is everything. They even put the idea that India attained independence after 2014 and the country was not independent before that – all of these are reflected in his words,” he stated.
