New Delhi: Congress Leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra launched a fierce criticism in opposition to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday and questioned the ruling authorities about their steady blame in opposition to the Congress celebration, which has been out of energy for the final 10 years.
While addressing the general public rally at Ramnagar in Uttarakhand’s Nainital, Congress leaders mentioned, “For how long will you (the BJP) keep blaming Congress? Congress has not been in power for the last 10 years. For the last 10 years, they (the BJP) have been in government with a full majority; now that they say ‘400 paar’, they want a majority. They say nothing has been done in 75 years.”
Priyanka praised the work of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and mentioned it’s not potential to construct such prestigious institutes like IITs, IIMs, and AIIMSs with out Nehru’s initiatives.Â
“If nothing has happened, how have such skills developed in Uttarakhand, from where IITs, IIMs, and AIIMSs came into the country? Chandrayaan landed on the moon; if Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru hadn’t built these, was it possible?” she added.
Accusing the ruling BJP authorities within the Centre of misusing the central businesses and failing to supply employment, “They are so busy using ED, CBI, and IT to bring leaders to their party and topple the government that they have forgotten about employment and inflation. Then, when the electoral bonds were disclosed, the issue of taking donations and doing business came to the fore. Now you tell me who is corrupt?” she mentioned.
