Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi might soon handover the steel mills of the Jharkhand to his billionaire friends. The Congress leader also said that the economic injustice has been deliberately orchestrated by PM in the nation where ruling party at the Center (BJP) is keen on handing over nation’s wealth and resources in to few hands.
Rahul made these remarks while addressing a public meeting on the 22nd day of the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. Gandhi also pointed out how PM Narendra Modi’s policies like the demonetization and faulty GST system had destroyed the country’s economy.
He claimed these policies has broken the back of industry that has led to widespread unemployment. “A few billionaire friends of the PM are gradually getting control over all the resources. PM might soon handover the steel mills of the state, like the Bokaro to the same friends.
The Prime Minister was handing over the Public Sector Undertakings, which otherwise generated huge employment, to his friends,” Rahul added. He also cautioned the tribals, saying, the BJP-led Centre is hell-bent on taking away their land, forests and water. He said the Congress has always defended and protected the tribals by enacting special laws for them.
