RAHUL ATTACKS GOVT OVER JOBS

NEW DELHI: Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Sunday attacked the Centre over the issue of job creation, alleging that incompetence coupled with arrogance has made the government a “textbook case of moral bankruptcy”.

Gandhi cited a media report, which quoted an Uber driver as saying that the government has not given jobs and he found one after investing lakhs, to make his point.

The driver had made the remarks when he was asked about NITI Aayog’s reported statement that Ola/Uber have created two million jobs.

“Incompetence coupled with arrogance has made this government a textbook case of moral bankruptcy,” Gandhi said in a Facebook post. Gandhi has been highly critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the issue of unemployment.
