New Delhi: Union Minister and BJP leader Hardeep Singh Puri on Saturday slammed Mallikarjun Kharge, a day after the Congress President hit back at PM Modi over the latter remark that the Congress stood ‘exposed’ before the public, over its fake poll promises.
Taking to X on Saturday, the Minister countered Kharge by pointing out various achievements of the Modi Government since it came to power in 2014.
“Congress Party and Mr Kharge seem to be oblivious of the changes that have transformed the lives of Indians for the better. Policies of inclusive development anchored in the vision of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ under the guidance of PM Narendra Modi have seen more than 24 crore Indians pulled out of multidimensional poverty,” he said.
He added that under the NDA government, nearly 11 crore toilets under the Swachh Bharat Mission were unconstructed, while 12 crore tap water connections were achieved under the Jal Jeevan Mission and AMRUT. Pointing out of over 10 crore Ujjwala connections under the NDA Government, he said that the government also ensured that there was no increase in the price of petrol and diesel when the international benchmark went up by 40-70%.
