Rahul slams Modi, Kejriwal for making false promises
New Delhi, May 29 (IBNS): As the Narendra Modi government celebrated its two years in power with a grand show at the Indian Gate amid presence of Bollywood stars, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi led a procession of party workers on Saturday and slammed the Central as well as the Delhi government for making false and unrealistic promises to people.
Speaking at the protest march against the unprecedented power and water crisis, Rahul said: "This country cannot progress with lies. Our party and our party workers don't do PR. They work for the people."
He said that his party, which knows how to provide electricity, provide water and works for people, will come to power again in Delhi.
"For India to progress, Governments need to stop making false and unrealistic promises and instead work to help the people," the Congress Vice president said.
Attacking Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, he said, "Kejriwalji promised uninterrupted electricity and water, but after coming to power all these promises were forgotten."
He also slammed PM Modi for celebrating at the India Gate when the country is facing water crisis and farmers are committing suicides.
"There is a drought all over the country.Farmers are committing suicide, but here at India Gate Modiji is celebrating with Bollywood stars," said he.
Rahul said, "Who is hurt when there is selfie politics? It's the farmer, the small businessman who gets hurt."
The leader said that he can never do politics based on lies.
"My politics is based on Mahatma Gandhi's ideology, I can never do politics of lies and false promises," claimed the Gandhi scion.
This came on a day when Delhi witnessed a special programme- Ek Nayi Subah- which marked the second anniversary of the BJP-led government at the centre as ministers, politicians , celebrities and other dignitaries assembled at the venue to be a part of the celebration.
