Modi - Nitish make tall promises, I stand by truth:Rahul

Modi - Nitish make tall promises, I stand by truth:Rahul

Katihar/ Kishanganj, Nov. 3 ( UNI) Criticising strongly Prime Minister Narendra Modi and
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, former National President of Congress Rahul Gandhi
today alleged that both did not fulfill the promises made before the people .
Mr Gandhi said that he never made tall promises and assured to waive off the farmer's
loan and fulfill all promises including employment and others after coming to power.
Addressing electoral rally in Katihar and Kishanganj, Mr Gandhi said that Mr Modi during
2014 Lok Sabha election had promised to bring back black money, to deposit Rs 15 lakh
in the bank account of every person and to provide employment to two crore youth every
year but after coming to power he forgot his words.
Mr Gandhi criticised NDA government led by Mr Modi for demonatisation and it's impact,
GST, handling of the coronavirus pandemic, migrant crisis, and the three new farm laws and
said that demonatisation benefited the corporate tycoons like Ambani and Adani whose loan
for over Rs 3 lakh 50 thousand crore were waived off whereas the common people had no
option other than to deposits their money in the bank.
Similarly Mr Kumar too cheated the people of Bihar by humiliating the mandate he was
polled in 2015. Mr Kumar had also promised to provide job to the migrant labourers at the
time of coronavirus pandemic but he failed to do so and the labourer were returning.
He said neither Modi nor Kumar did anything to help migrant labourers when they were
walking thousands of kilometres to return homes during the coronavirus lockdown.
The Congress had arranged buses for the movement of migrant workers," he said.
Mr Gandhi said that once the Grand Alliance was voted to power in Bihar, he would wave
off farmer's loan, provide Rs 2500 per Quintol on paddy purchase as it is given in
Chhatisgarh, employment to youth, better education, health and others.
Speaking about farmer's condition he said the new law in the name of agricultural reforms
would force them to sell their produce only to Ambani and Adani.
Mr Gandhi said whether it is Rashtriya Swyam Sevak Sangh (RSS) or PM Narendra Modi
they all target him because it is he who alone is speaking against their activities.
