"Give False Promises, Assume Power, Then...": Anurag Thakur Attacks Congress
NDTV
Anurag Thakur alleged that the Congress government in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh failed to waive farm loans and provide unemployment allowance.
Union minister Anurag Thakur has hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, alleging that his model of giving "false" promises to assume power and then not fulfilling the guarantees has failed in the states ruled by the grand old party.
His criticism comes in the wake of Rahul Gandhi and Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, during their recent visits to poll-bound Madhya Pradesh, giving several guarantees if their party is voted to power in the state.
The Congress has announced free and subsidised power, implementation of the old pension scheme, farm loan waiver, Rs 1,500 per month to women and some other guarantees.
