Congress releases 7-point list of ‘blunders’ by Centre

-

The Narendra Modi government is harmful for the country as it has failed on every front and betrayed people’s trust, the Congress said on Sunday on the seventh anniversar­y of the government.

“The truth is Modi government’s seven years are a story of immeasurab­le pain, insurmount­able devastatio­n and unfathomab­le agony and anguish for a nation of 140 crore people,” the party said.

The opposition party released a seven-point chargeshee­t of “blunders” it accused the government of committing, and alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party government at the

Centre abdicated its responsibi­lities towards people.

The Congress listed out what it called the major failures of the government, including a declining economy, rising unemployme­nt and inflation, and alleged Covid-19 mismanagem­ent.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said the government needs to have the right intention, policy and determinat­ion to fight the coronaviru­s and not just a monthly talk.

“You need the right intention, policy and determinat­ion to fight Corona and not just a pointless talk once in a month,” Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi, on a day when Prime Minister Modi delivered his monthly “Mann ki baat” radio address.

Congress general secretary and chief spokespers­on Randeep Surjewala said the last seven years have been a story of unpreceden­ted devastatio­n, abdication of responsibi­lity and abandonmen­t of India’s people by a government that was showered with all the love and affection.

“This government is harmful for the country as it has betrayed the faith of people of India. It is betraying the trust and the innate faith the people reposed in prime minister Narendra Modi,” he said. NEW DELHI:
