Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress party following its president, Mallikarjun Kharge’s, advice to state units to make only “fiscally doable” promises. Modi stated on X (formerly Twitter), “The Congress Party is realizing the hard way that making unreal promises is easy but implementing them properly is tough or impossible.” He accused Congress of repeatedly making unfulfillable promises, leading to their exposure before the public.

Modi further targeted Congress-led states, asserting, “Check any state where the Congress has Governments today—Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, and Telangana—the developmental trajectory and fiscal health is turning from bad to worse.” He claimed that Congress’s unfulfilled guarantees deceive the populace, adversely affecting the poor, youth, farmers, and women by denying them promised benefits and diluting existing schemes.

Emphasising the need for public vigilance, Modi remarked, “The people of the country will have to be vigilant against the Congress-sponsored culture of fake promises!” He referenced recent electoral outcomes, noting, “We saw recently how the people of Haryana rejected their lies and preferred a Government that is stable, progress-oriented, and action-driven.”

Modi concluded by stating, “There is a growing realization across India that a vote for Congress is a vote for non-governance, poor economics, and unparalleled loot. The people of India want development and progress, not the same old #FakePromisesOfCongress!”

In a press conference, Kharge advised restraint in making electoral promises, particularly in Maharashtra. He stated, “In Maharashtra, I’ve said that they shouldn’t announce 5, 6, 10, or 20 guarantees. They should announce guarantees based on budget.” Kharge warned that excessive promises could lead to financial instability, resulting in bankruptcy and neglect of essential infrastructure like roads. He cautioned that such failures could tarnish the government’s reputation, potentially leading to a decade-long political exile.
