Cong poll promises a pipedream: Modi
The Free Press Journal|November 02, 2024
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the Congress stands "badly exposed" in front of people for promising them what the party knows it will never be able to deliver.

The fierce attack came as PM Modi seized on party president Mallikarjun Kharge's comments that the Congress' state units should make promises that are properly budgeted and do not lead to financial troubles. Kharge had made the statement in the backdrop of the fiscal problems the party-ruled states are facing.

On Thursday, Kharge had pulled up Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar over a statement he had made on withdrawing a poll guarantee Congress had made.

Kharge said, "You have given some guarantees. After seeing them, I too said in Maharashtra that there are five guarantees in Karnataka. Now you (Shivakumar) said you will withdraw one guarantee." The Congress chief said Shivakumar's statement about reviewing the Shakti scheme had given the BJP a chance.

"Don't go for saying five, six, 10 or twenty guarantees.
