New Delhi: The Congress on Thursday released a ”black paper” to highlight the ”failures” of the Modi government, flagging issues such as unemployment, price rise and ”farmers’ distress”.
The release of the âblack paperâ titled â10 Saal Anyay Kaalâ by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge comes ahead of the governmentâs tabling in Parliament of a âwhite paperâ on the âmismanagementâ of the economy prior to 2014 with an aim to draw lessons.
The ‘black paper’ highlights issues such as ”unemployment, price rise, farmers’ distress, failure to carry out a caste census and injustice to womenâ.
Attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Kharge said he talks of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi when asked about price rise but âthey are ruling now and they should answer what they have doneâ.
It was Modi’s guarantee to provide 2 crore jobs and ensure MSP to farmers and now the prime minister should say he could not do it a but instead he has come up with new guarantees.
Kharge said the Congress ensured India’s independence and in 2024, it will take the country out of the BJP’s ”darkness of injustice”.
