On Monday, union minister Anurag Thakur claimed that Saffron Party will again emerge as a ruling party in LS polls of 2024 as Modi Govt believed in empowerment and development not in appeasement.
He asserted that "Our government believes in sashaktikaran (empowerment) and not tushtikaran (appeasement)”.
“That is the reason why we gave 10 per cent reservation to the Economically Weaker Sections. While we believe in serving people, some believe in indulging in politics. We will once again come to power by securing more than 300 seats in the Lok Sabha elections."
The Congress made records in corruption prior to 2014 while the Bharatiya Janata Party set benchmarks by introducing welfare schemes and creating infrastructure like IITs, IIMs and AIIMS in the past nine years, Thakur asserted. "Before 2014, scams used to emerge at regular intervals. Today, every citizen feels the Modi government is his or her own government. We lifted 27 per cent poor citizens out of poverty. Four generations of Congress shouted the slogan garibi hatao (remove poverty) but did nothing. Our government gave security and dignity to the poor," the minister said.
Reacting to Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's contention that inflation has soared under the Modi government, Thakur challenged the former to prove it through data. "Contrary to what Kharge says, India actually kept its inflation under control in comparison to the rate of inflation in the US and European countries. Despite the fact that there was no global crisis when Congress was in power, the rate of inflation was 12 to 14 per cent in the country," Thakur claimed. The Congress should see their own data and then talk as during their regime, inflation and corruption were sky high, he added.
