New Delhi: Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday launched scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi over hosts of issues pertaining to the common man - including employment. While addressing an election rally in New Delhi's Jangpura, Rahul Gandhi said that PM Modi coined a nice slogan of Make In India but did not set up even a single factory in Uttar Pradesh's Agra. "Narendra Modi coined good slogan of Make in India but not a single factory has been set up. They are selling everything - Indian Oil, Air India, Hindustan Petroleum, Railways & even Red Fort. They may sell even the Taj Mahal," Rahul Gandhi said. Further hitting out at the Central government over the issue of ongoing protests in the national capital against the contentious Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the incidents of firing in Jamia and Shaheen Bagh, Rahul Gandhi said that PM Modi has no understanding of religion as no holy books talks of violence. "Job of the BJP is just to spread violence in the country,'' he said.

Modi gave the slogan of Made In India, but he did not set up a single factory. IOC, Air India, Hindustan Petroleum, Railways and even Red Fort, they are engaged in selling everything. These people may also sell Taj Mahal: @RahulGandhi #फिर_से_कांग्रेस_वाली_दिल्ली pic.twitter.com/pXaXP2hR7F

The Congress leader also took pod shots at Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal saying that both PM and the CM could not resolve the biggest issue facing the country even though several countries are ready to invest in India. He asked whether Prime Minister Narendra Modi fulfilled his promise of providing jobs to two crore youth of the country. “Do you remember that promise? Have they got those jobs? What has the AAP and Arvind Kejriwal do in Delhi to alleviate unemployment?” he said during the rally.

Be it BJP or AAP, there is no real work done but only marketing. Marketing themselves on public money: @RahulGandhi #फिर_से_कांग्रेस_वाली_दिल्ली

Further in his speech, Rahul Gandhi brought up the issue of demonetisation and goods and services tax (GST) implementation and asked whether these measures have helped people of the country. This is for the time the Congress leader was campaigning for his party for the Delhi Assembly Elections - scheduled to take place on February. The Congress party could not managed to win even a single seat in 2014 Delhi Assembly elections. However, it is trying its best to regain the lost grounds in the national capital, which is being seen as a two-way race between the AAP and BJP.
