"The Fuhrer promised us 2 crore jobs a year. 5 years later, his leaked job-creation report card reveals a national disaster. Unemployment is at its highest in 45 years; 6.5 crore youth are jobless in 2017-18 alone. Time for NoMo2Go (Modi to go)," tweeted Gandhi.
He also made fun of Modi's "Hows the Josh" slogan with "Hows the Jobs".
Congress' media in-charge spokesperson Randeep Surjewala also alleged that the unemployment rate is at a 45-year high and said this was the reason why the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) report on jobs was withheld. This is why the members of National Statistical Commission resigned, he claimed.
"Unemployment rate is at a 45-year-high. This is why the NSSO Report was kept under the wraps.
"This is why members of NSC (National Statistical Commission) resigned. Promise of two crore jobs turned out to be a cruel joke!
"India does not want a government that has left the future of our youth in jeopardy," said Surjewala.
The party tweeted: "In just five years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has devastated the economy and driven unemployment to a 45-year-high. The youth of India have one question for you Modiji."
Another Congress leader Abhishek Singhvi also cited the report and said:"If figs inconvenient, doctor them; if experts indep, make them lame duck & forced 2resign; if doctoring nt possible, change basis of calculation! Vive #bjp #Modi."
A Business Standard report, citing data collated under the NSSO, a report that has been withheld by the government, claimed that India's unemployment rate was at a 45-year-high of 6.1 per cent in 2017-18.
