"How can we take the Prime Minister's remarks seriously when he takes pride in providing free foodgrains to 80 crore people?"
Digital Desk: The Congress
struck back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday, stating that he was
once again employing his "toolkit" of "cursing" past
governments in Rajasthan, but that the people of the state will respond
appropriately, as they had in Karnataka.
After Modi accused the Congress of betraying the poor during its 50-year
rule at a rally in Ajmer, party spokesperson Pawan Khera said they do not take
the prime minister's remarks seriously because someone who takes pride in
giving free foodgrains to 80 crore people should realise that he has to do so
because crores of people have fallen back into poverty.

takes pride in providing free foodgrains to 80 crore people?"

country's economy is in shambles, and the PM is using the toolkit to curse the
previous administrations." He utilised this toolset in Karnataka, and the
public responded. "You will now receive an appropriate response from the
people of Rajasthan as well," Khera added.

claimed that the World Bank, "from whom the Modi government wishes to
obtain a certificate," declared that the Manmohan Singh government lifted
27 crore people out of poverty during the UPA administration.
mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-latin;color:#222222">"Those 27 crore have
fallen back into poverty, and 14 crore more have fallen below the poverty line
during the BJP's tenure." This is why Narendra Modi must distribute free
foodgrains to 80 crore people," he remarked.

furious because a "son of the poor" is not enabling them to do what
they want and is "raising questions on their corruption and parivarwaad
(dynastic politics)."
The prime minister
accused the Congress of deceiving the masses and keeping them impoverished
during its rule. "Fifty years ago, Congress promised to eliminate poverty.
However, it turned out to be their worst betrayal of the poor." "The
Congress has made it a policy to mislead the poor and keep them
impoverished." "The people of Rajasthan have also suffered greatly as
a result of this," Modi remarked.

Modi government's two mandates, which lasted nine years.

service, excellent governance, and the welfare of the poor, he remarked.
color:#222222">Before 2014, people were on the streets protesting corruption
and terror attacks rocked major cities, according to Modi, while the Congress
ruled the country by remote control.
During its reign, the
Congress created a corrupt system that "sucked the blood of the
country" and stifled progress, he claimed.
Now, the prime minister stated, people all over the world are
talking about India, and experts believe the country is on the verge of ending
extreme poverty.
Modi's visit to Rajasthan is significant because the state's
assembly elections are scheduled for later this year.
