NEW DELHI (25/02/2022) : Congress leader Rahul Gandhi once again launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said that he and his friends have “broken the backbone” of India’s employment sector.
Addressing an election rally in his previous parliamentary constituency Amethi, the Wayanad MP said, “The backbone of India’s employment sector has been broken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his friends. You’ll see in the coming times, the youth of this country won’t get employment, teach them however much you want. No one listened to me during COVID, but you saw bodies in Ganga.”
While many call it a very delayed campaign arrival from a top leader, Rahul Gandhi has finally hit the ground for electioneering in Amethi right before the end of campaigning for the fifth phase of elections in the electorally crucial state.
The fifth phase of voting in Uttar Pradesh will take place on February 27 when 60 assembly constituencies will go to the polls.
In the backdrop of employment promises in Uttar Pradesh, the Congress MP further accused the Prime Minister of lying.
“When they (BJP) say nothing happened in our 70 years, they actually meant nothing happened for Ambani, Adani in these 70 years… remember, India’s biggest billionaires do not give employment, small shopkeepers, traders, and farmers do,” said Rahul Gandhi while slamming the government for not doing enough for the common man.
He also said that the Prime Minister promised to double farmers’ income. “And then he implemented three black laws,” he added.
