Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said Congress is exposed in front of people as their so-called guarantees lie “unfulfilled”. He said that the developmental trajectory and fiscal health of Congress-ruled states is turning from bad to worse.
The Prime Minister’s remark came days after Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar indicating about revisiting the ‘Shakti’ scheme, which provides free bus travel for all women domiciled in the state.
“The Congress Party is realising the hard way that making unreal promises is easy but implementing them properly is tough or impossible. Campaign after campaign they promise things to the people, which they also know they will never be able to deliver. Now, they stand badly exposed in front of the people,” he said.
The Prime Minister also remarked that the developmental trajectories and fiscal health of Congress-governed states is turning from bad to worse along with unfulfilled guarantees. “The victims of such politics are the poor, youngsters, farmers and women, who are not only denied the benefits of these promises but also see their existing schemes diluted,” he added.

He also accused the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government of indulging in “intra-party politics and loot” instead of focusing on delivering on development. He also said the state government was going to roll back existing schemes.
“The people of the country will have to be vigilant against the Congress sponsored culture of fake promises! We saw recently how the people of Haryana rejected their lies and preferred a Government that is stable, progress oriented and action driven. There is a growing realisation across India that a vote for Congress is a vote for non-governance, poor economics and unparalleled loot,” he said.
