NEW DELHI: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday attacked the BJP and asked how long would the ruling party keep blaming the Congress which has been out of power for the last 10 years.
“For how long you’ll keep blaming Congress. Congress has not been in power for the last 10 years. For the last 10 years, they have been in govt with a full majority.Now they say ‘400 paar’ which means they want more majority,” Priyanka said at an election rally in Uttarakhand.
“What have you done in the last 10 years. They say nothing has been done in 75 years. If nothing had happened, how did Uttarakhand develop so much of skill? From where did the IITs, IIMs and AIIMS came into existence. Who sowed the seeds for success of Chandrayaaan? If Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru hadn’t taken initiative in the 1950s, would these have been possibe?” the Congress leader said.
Priyanka also attacked the government over rising prices. “They now say they will reduce the price of gas cylinders. But have you not been paying Rs 1200 for gas cylinders for the last many years? Who has been ruling the country – it is the BJP and PM Modi?” Priyanka said.
