Modi's rule 'most disappointing' for country: Congress


New Delhi, May 26 (PTI) : Terming the performance of two- year-old Modi Government as the "most disappointing" for any dispensation since independence, Congress today said there is little to celebrate for the country,as it fielded a battery of senior leaders to counter government's claims of development and delivery.

"Modi ji why are you celebrating. Is there prosperity all around in the nation," party spokesperson Kapil Sibal said adding, these were "two years of hollow promises".

Attacking the NDA government on a wide range of issues from economy and employment to foreign policy, the Congress leaders also contrasted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's performance vis a vis his predecessor Manmohan Singh under UPA rule.

The opposition party alleged that the NDA government is "surviving just on advertisements" and challenged it for a debate.

"Singh did not talk much but his work was bespeaking. Modi ji keeps on talking but his work speaks of nothing.... I challenge Modi government, any of its minister to come and debate with us," Sibal said.

"Modi ji why are you celebrating....Is Varanasi (Modi's Parliamentary constituency) clean now? Have the youths got employment? Did the farmers' suicide stop. What has happened in last two years that you are celebrating?"

The AICC also released a short film titled "pragati ki tham gai chaal, do saal, desh ka bura haal (The pace of progress is halted, the country in a bad shape in two years)", slamming the government on 10 issues, besides making a power-point presentation which projected the government's performance as "abysmal".

Addressing the joint press conference, Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad, Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge, AICC Communication Department Chairman Randeep Surjewala and Sibal alleged that the two-year tenure of the government is full of "hollow promises".

    Now all the congress party leaders are suffering from gastric and cardiovascular problems and put in ICU ventilators.They can't even breath because of Modiji's popularity and development/progress made within short period of two years under Modi's leadership.But congress could not do in ten years of continuous rule.Now they are suffocating,can't digest.By hook or crook,congress want to spoil the name of Modiji and divert the mind of people with their false propaganda.They even having sleeping problem(insomnia)and administered heavy dose of sleeping pils.MRI scanning to performed very shortly.Then only their actual problems can be ascertained according to their attending physician.Waiting for the blood report because it is suspected to be a cancer.However at the present stage,they are affected by jaundice,that is why every they see only yellow,yellow.The people who are degrading Modi government and its developments,are themselves corrupt and liars and Feku Ramajis.Unreliable people,talking big big things.Sibal is one of the biggest liers and cunnings.

    Now the middle class and poor class are all suffering they can never save anything for the future but one thing corruption is at the minimum. No policies have reached the people and the unemployment ratio is at the highest and FDI inflow has reduced considerably but the exp on publicity and advertising of work done by BJP in this two years is at the highest absolutely pathetic. You work for 5 years then you can say you have done 10% job but one cannot say that promises have been fulfilled in these two years is a joke and like bullying the people of this country

    People have and are realising that the high hopes that were raised by the PM before the elections were just shallow promises. A PM who 24 x7 is either on election mode or visiting foreign countries can hardly devote time for the numerous problems facing the country. The Gujarat Model bubble has already busted, The Development Mantra and Governance will follow sooner than later.

    Two years of hollow promises, innumerable 'U' turns, Virulent criticism of Aadhar Card and then making it the main source for Direct Benefit Transfer, Criticizing MNREGA and then finding it the best way of giving employment to the poor, sound slaps to the PM on governance from foreign dignitaries, rejection by the electorate of BJP in all the elections, false achievements claimed in scientific achievements (which were the long term research carried out by scientists under previous Governments), black money not brought back to Indian Shores instead money launderers allowed to leave Indian Shores gracefully,political witch hunt of political leaders and parties, and totally misguided electorate on Aache Din which is a mirage since 24 months. If voluntary surrender of LPG by the people, opening bank accounts without any balance or extension of banking facility to the poor account holders is achievement, then God save us.

    This party is brain dead and in comatose stage in ICU, holding onto only due to few states Karnataka and NE and getting ready to slipped int the coffin for the funeral, as soon as these these states pull the plug. Sadly the party and party leadership do not seem to understand the gravity of the situation and clinging to the langa of Gandhi/Nehru family. They still think that they are in Indira Gandhis' petta kanji era, where even a light pole could win the elections under the party. gone are the days. Thirukana kanasu

    Flavian,
    If anyone listens to your advise in Congress, I will be happy.
    If Gandhi family leaves the control of Congress party, definitely congress will revive and bounce back, and most importantly , it is the need of the hour.
    I like BJP for its development agenda, Its nationalistic ideas and its non-appeasement politics. But I am scared of the way BJP is growing. Any single party with huge majority is always dangerous to the country more so with BJP who has got MPs like sakshi maharaj and sadhvis.
    The communal agenda of BJP is dangerous.
    BJP has to understand that they can not kill or drive away all the Muslims and Christians from India, at the same time Congress should understand that appeasing one community leads to a hatred towards that community from all the rest.

    Hope wisdom strikes straight on the medulla oblongata of Rahul Gandhi or Sonya Gandhi!!
