Rahul Gandhi ups ante against PM Modi


Congress leader Rahul Gandhi continued his verbal tirade against Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led central government accusing him of working for industrialists. As the country prepares to vote for the penultimate sixth phase Lok Sabha polling, Gandhi has upped his ante against PM Modi.
“The Modi government is ‘Adani government’,” Gandhi remarked while addressing an election rally to garner votes for party candidate Rao Dan Singh from Bhiwani-Mahendergarh seat.
Expressing confidence that the INDIA bloc will form the next government, he said the alliance will discontinue the Agnipath scheme after coming to power on June 4.
“The PM office has introduced the Agnipath scheme without consulting army officials and is playing with youths’ futures. Modi has divided martyrs into two groups. Those recruited through Agnipath scheme are not considered martyrs even after sacrificing their lives on the border. They will not be given pension or government job benefit, while those recruited earlier are getting all benefits. We will not allow division of youths protecting the borders,” he said.
