Prime Minister Narendra Modi tore into Congress in his Lok Sabha address on Monday. He said the grand old party has miserably failed to fulfil the duties of an Opposition member.
In a veiled jibe at Rahul Gandhi, who is currently in Jharkhand for his 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra', PM Modi said, "Ek hi product baar-baar launch karne ke chakkar mein, Congress ki dukaan tala lagne ki naubat aa gayi hai (Congress' shop on verge of closure in its attempt to launch same product again and again)".
PM Modi outrightly held Congress responsible for the "condition" of the Opposition's
alliance and said the party has failed to fulfil its responsibility as a member of the Opposition. He said the grand old party has miserably failed to fulfil the duties of an Opposition member.
"The Congress party is responsible for the current condition of the Opposition. Congress got an opportunity to become a good opposition. However, they have failed to fulfil their responsibility in the last ten years," he said.
PM Modi further targeted the Congress and said that it seems they have vowed to remain in the Opposition for decades, much like they were in power for years.
