With Modi 3.0 completing 100 days, the Congress on Monday claimed that Narendra Modi in his third term had proven to be a “weak” prime minister who was dependent on crutches and setting new records for U-turns. Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said the past 100 days had weighed heavily on the nation’s farmers, youth, women, infrastructure, Railways, and overall peace.
These hundred days have proven that Modi has neither a solution nor a vision for the country’s problems, she said at a press conference at the AICC headquarters. Modi’s “habit” of turning a blind eye to issues and running away from challenges continues to persist, she claimed.
“Each moment of the government in these 100 days has been marked by instability, indecision and immaturity. There have been multiple attempts to inflate a punctured balloon but the thorn pricked by the public in the Lok Sabha elections has not given Narendra Modi any chance to rise again,” she said.
“Do you remember the tall claims made during the election campaign that Narendra Modi was planning for the first 100 days? Where is that plan now? Because from day one, Modi has proven to be a weak prime minister, dependent on crutches, setting new records for U-turns,” Shrinate said and cited alleged U-turns on issues of lateral entry in civil services, broadcast bill, Waqf bill, indexation and NPS. Posing questions to the prime minister, Shrinate asked if he had any plan or vision for the next five years.
“Do you have a plan to improve relations with our neighbouring countries? Do you have a plan to address the economy, income inequality, unemployment, inflation, or women’s safety?” Shrinate asked.
“Besides blowing the whistle on corruption, what have you done? In fact, all those you called corrupt are now in the BJP. Are you planning to legitimise corruption now?”
