Modi govt spreading religious fundamentalism as it has no achievements to claim: Kerala-based Congress leader
Thiruvananthapuram: Senior Congress leader from India’s Karela state, Ramesh Chennithala has said that the rulers at helm of India today are trying to woo people by spreading religious fundamentalism as they cannot claim any achievements.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Ramesh Chennithala was addressing the Veruppinethire Sneha Sandesha Yatra, a campaign organised by T.N. Prathapan, Congress MP, in the Thrissur Lok Sabha constituency, at Guruvayur in Karela, today.
“Where are the promises made by Narendra Modi in the last 10 years? He promised to give jobs to 2 crore youth in a year. How many youths got jobs in these 10 years? He claimed to build 100 smart cities. Not even one has come up. Prices of diesel and petrol have skyrocketed, as that of LPG. Farmers’ suicides have increased. The government is suppressing those who are protesting. The country has never seen such a hopeless rule,” Chennithala said.
“What is the message given by the Prime Minister of a country who participates in the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Temple? That was not the duty of a ruler. It was against traditional Hindu beliefs. People have realised it,” he said.
