The Congress on Monday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for calling for measures to be taken by citizens to overcome the challenges posed by the West Asia conflict, saying that the ?compromised PM? is no longer capable of running the country.
The opposition party also asked Prime Minister Modi not to shift the blame for ?12 years of failures? onto the shoulders of the Indian public. Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi said the prime minister?s words were ?evidence of
failure?.
?Yesterday, Modi Ji called upon the public to make sacrifices ? do not buy gold, do not travel abroad, consume less petrol, cut down on fertilisers and cooking oil, take the metro, and work from home,? Gandhi said in an X post in Hindi.
?These are not words of counsel; they are evidence of failure,? he said. Over a span of 12 years, the country has been brought to such a juncture that the public now has to be told what to buy and what not to buy, where to go and where not to go, Gandhi said.
