Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh) [India], November 2 (ANI): Congress MP Pramod Tiwari on Saturday following PM Modi’s series of tweets slamming Congress for alleged ‘Fake promises’, made by Congress ahead of the poll criticised the BJP for unfulfilled promises on inflation, job creation, and financial aid, calling the party’s assurances “false” and questioning their delivery.
Tiwari said, “Their promises turned out to be false. I do not call them (BJP) liars but their promises are false.”
“Where did the talk of controlling inflation go? Where did the talk of 2 crore jobs every year go? Where did the talk of giving 15 lakhs go?” the Congress leader added.
Earlier in the day, Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh also criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent remarks about the party by underlining that Congress leaders have robustly responded to Modi’s accusations, pointing out the irony of a leader who has not spoken the truth in a decade criticizing others.
Congress General Secretary in-charge Communications, Jairam Ramesh, responded sharply to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s comments about the Congress party. He stated, “What to say about the non-biological Prime Minister. The Congress President and our Chief Ministers have given a strong reply to him. The person who has not spoken the truth even by mistake is accusing the Congress party. It is amazing that the person who has been engaged in ‘Jumla’ for the last 10 years and there is a huge difference between his words and actions is today giving sermons to the Congress party and criticizing the Congress party; this makes me laugh.”
Tiwari and Ramesh’s response were a direct reply to Modi’s recent thread of tweets, in which the Prime Minister accused Congress of making empty promises during election campaigns.
In his tweet, PM Modi claimed, “The Congress Party is realizing the hard way that making unreal promises is easy but implementing them properly is tough or impossible. Campaign after campaign, they promise things to the people, which they also know they will never be able to deliver.”
PM Modi cited issues in Congress-ruled states, mentioning that the “developmental trajectory and fiscal health is turning from bad to worse” in Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh, and Telangana. He alleged that Congress’s unfulfilled promises were misleading the poor, youth, farmers, and women and that existing welfare schemes were being neglected.
Modi urged the public to be vigilant against what he termed the “Congress-sponsored culture of fake promises” and cited Haryana’s recent election results as evidence of people rejecting Congress. (ANI)
