Oppn insulted country’s sentiments, hard work of 60,000 labourers by boycotting parl inauguration: PM

Date:

Ajmer (Rajasthan): In his first remarks on the Congress-led Opposition boycotting the inauguration of the new Parliament building, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Wednesday said they “insulted” the sentiment of the country and the hard work of 60,000 labourers.

“India got a new Parliament building three days back. I ask you whether you are proud of it or not. Did you feel the joy on the increase in India’s prestige? The Congress and some parties like it hurled muck of politics on this too,” he said at a rally in Ajmer.

Modi also said the Congress is a party that took “85 percent commission”, and referred to a statement by former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi that when his government sent one rupee only 15 paise would reach the intended beneficiary.

Referring to main Opposition party Congress, Modi said they are angry because a “son of the poor” is not allowing them to do what they want and is “raising questions on their corruption and parivarwad (dynastic politics).”

The prime minister accused Congress of following a policy of misleading the poor and keeping them deprived during its rule. “Fifty years ago, Congress guaranteed that it will remove poverty. But it turned out to be their biggest betrayal to the poor.”

“It has been a policy of the Congress to mislead the poor and keep them deprived. The people of Rajasthan have also suffered a lot due to this,” Modi said.

The rally was organised to mark the completion of nine years of the Modi government across its two terms.
