At a recent election event in Jaipur, senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of dismantling the country’s dignity and democratic principles. Gandhi alleged that the ruling government has deliberately exacerbated issues like unemployment, inflation, economic turmoil, and inequality over the past decade.
Gandhi’s remarks come amidst a charged political atmosphere, with Lok Sabha elections on the horizon. She claimed that the BJP was resorting to various tactics to coerce opposition leaders into joining their ranks. The former Congress chief warned of a concerted effort to erode democratic institutions and alter the country’s constitutional framework.
Echoing Gandhi’s sentiments, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, the party’s national general secretary, highlighted recent arrests of opposition figures like Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren by federal agencies. She criticized the government for its alleged failure to address pressing issues like unemployment, inflation, and the plight of farmers.
The Congress party has released its manifesto, titled ‘Nyay Patra,’ promising justice and vowing to prioritize the needs of the nation’s marginalized communities. As the political landscape intensifies, the accusations and counter-accusations between the ruling BJP and the opposition are expected to escalate further.
