New Delhi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi late on Friday evening, hours after the latter said that India’s grand old party stood exposed before the people and that they also made fake promises during elections.
In his response, Kharge wrote, “Lies, Deceit, Fakery, Loot & Publicity are the 5 adjectives which best describe your Govt! Your drumbeating regarding a 100-day plan was a cheap PR stunt! On May 16, 2024 you had also claimed that you took inputs from more than 20 lakh people for the road map for 2047. RTI filed in PMO declined to put forth details, exposing your LIES! The ‘B’ in BJP stands for Betrayal, while the ‘J’ stands for JUMLA !”
‘Why India’s unemployment rate at 25 year high?’
In a series of questions, the Congress President asked about India’s increasing in unemployment rates. “Why is India’s Unemployment Rate at a 45-year high? Why are stampedes witnessed wherever there are vacancies for a handful of jobs? Who is responsible for 70 paper leaks in 7 years? Who snatched 5 Lakh Govt jobs by selling stake in PSUs?,” Kharge asked.
Further talking about increase in prices, he asked, “ Why has the cost of a common thali increased by 52% in just last year? TOP — Tomato Prices increased by 247%, Potato by 180% and Onion by 60%? Who levied GST on essential food items such as Milk, Curd, Atta, Dal? Who is penalising Middle Class through LTCG by indulging in Tax Terrorism?.”

His statement had come a day after Kharge asked the Congress unit president to in states ruled of the Congress to avoid making promises that could not be delivered. On Thursday, he had accepted the some of the poll promises led to financial constraints in some Congress-ruled states.
