Old faces, old sins, old ways, just a new name, says Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Opposition at Rajkot on Thursday, saying «at a time when so much of work is happening and the country is moving ahead, it is only natural that some people will have troubles». While inaugurating the Rajkot International Airport and projects worth over '860 cr, Modi took a dig at the Opposition and said «those who kept the people of the country ever longing, those who had nothing to do with the aspirations and desires of the people are a little extra angry today seeing the dreams of the people coming true.» Keeping up the attacks, Modi said: «The corrupt and dynasts have even changed the name of their gang. The faces are old, sins are old, ways are old, only the name of the gang has changed.

Their ways are the same and so are their wishes.» «When middle class gets something cheap, they say the farmers are not getting the right price; when the farmers get higher price, they say inflation has gone up. This duplicity is their politics.» Modi added: «What is their track record on price rise? When in power, they had pushed the price rise to 10%. Had our government not contained the prices, the prices would have been touching the sky in India.

If the country had the earlier governments, milk would have cost '300 per litter and pulses would have sold for '500 per kg. From the school fees of the children to the cost of communication everything would have grown by a few times.» «It is our government that inspite of Covid-19 and Russia Ukraine war kept price rise in check. In our neighbouring countries, prices are rising by 25 to 30%, but not in India.
