Congress President Sonia Gandhi slams Modi saying that whatever promises he had made in 2014 Lok Sabha elections were “nothing more than hawabaazi” which means empty air.
Sonia while addressing the committee people in Congress working Committee (CWC) which is the party’s highest decision making body, It has become painfully clear that most of the pledges made by the Prime Minister during his election campaign were nothing more than 'hawabaazi'. The Modi government has failed abysmally to match words with deeds, to match media events with actual accomplishments, to match headlines with substance."
Sonia also added that, “The PM has been reduced to "unedifying flip-flops" which has cast doubts on "what he really stood for." Sonia also hit out at the Prime Minister for his government's Pakistan policy.The security situation in our neighbourhood has deteriorated considerably. Our jawans and civilians are being increasingly targeted. Instead of a coherent policy on Pakistan, this government can't seem to make up its mind on what it should do.”
"The autonomy and integrity of vital institutions which have stood the country in good stead are being systematically eroded. Writers and progressive thinkers are being physically eliminated. The media is being threatened with notices and other repressive measures."
"The credit for this goes to every worker of the Congress party, which under Rahul's active guidance, carried out a sustained agitation. It goes without saying that lakhs of farmers across the country tirelessly demonstrated and agitated against this ordinance," she said.
She also praised her son and also party’s vice president Rahul Gandhi for his efforts on land acquisition bill.
