New Delhi: Coming down heavily on the government over its asset monetisation pipeline scheme, the Congress plans to take the issue to the grassroots level with a series of press conferences by its leaders across the country.
“The country is talking about friend-monopoly,” Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said with the hashtag ‘IndiaOnSale’ on Twitter to attack the government.
Rahul Gandhi on Saturday hit out at ‘brutal’ police action against farmers in Haryana’s Karnal district earlier in the day, tweeting two lines in Hindi to underline the country’s ‘shame’ over a lathi charge that left several people injured.
Rahul tweeted a photograph of a man whose white kurta pajama was splattered with blood, and who was holding a bloodied cloth to tend to wounds on his head. The man is being led away by two others, who are not in the frame.
