The Congress Party on Tuesday hit out at
the Narendra Modi government saying in the last three
years there was little progress and development in the country. Addressing a
press conference following a meeting of the Congress Working Committee (CWC),
senior party leader and Member of Parliament Ghulam Nabi Azad said the Modi
government was a hero when it came to being on television, but zero in reality.
“Ye sirf naaron aur publicity
ki sarkar hai, jo TV pe toh hero dikhti hai par zameeni kaamon mein zero hai (This is a government of
slogans and publicity… on TV they look like heroes but on the ground, they
are zero),” Azad said, adding that the government has only managed to create
‘fear’ in the last three years.
Party president Sonia Gandhi, who
chaired the meeting, said, “We must be ready to protect the essence and idea of
India which this government is seeking to extinguish.
“There is a brazen campaign to straitjacket the whole country
into regressive and narrow-minded world view during three years of NDA
government,” she added. On the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, she said there
is growing confrontation, tension and fear as compared to the relative calm
experienced earlier. She also commented on India’s economic growth, saying
there is ‘stagnation’.
