BJP destroyed India’s social environment: Congress

PANAJI

Alleging that the Modi government has failed on all fronts, AICC General Secretary Tariq Anwar on Thursday said that BJP has destroyed the social environment of the nation

Anwar, on Thursday, addressed a press conference in Panaji and said that all the promises made by Narendra Modi have remained unfulfilled.

Chairman of AICC Research Department Prof. MV Rajeev Gowda, AICC spokesperson Alka Lamba and others were present on the occasion. 

“Modi has failed to resolve the issue raised by the people of this nation. Things are getting worse and communal harmony of the nation is destroyed,” Anwar said. 

He said that the nation grappled with the unemployment issue and BJP has done nothing to resolve it. “Youth are frustrated as there are no jobs. BJP has failed to create jobs. Besides, there is rising inflation every day and poor people are suffering,” he said. 

Tanwar attacked the BJP in Goa for failing to create job opportunities. “Power hungry BJP hijacked power from Congress by forming a government undemocratically. They tried to promote defection also in other states. But now I am optimistic that Congress will get a clear majority and BJP will be sent home,” he said. 

Prof Gowda exposed the falsehoods in the PM’s speeches in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha held on February 7 and 8, 2022. 

Responding to Modi’s statement that Congress has become “leader of tukde tukde gang”, Gowda said the BJP is quick to use the term, but the government themselves do not have any information on what the “tukde tukde gang” is, or who its members are.

Reacting to PM’s statement that “We are firm believers in democracy. And we also believe that criticism is an essential part of democracy”, Gowda said that if anyone speaks against the government then they are booked under sedition charges.
