President’s speech, a repeat of previous years: Rahul Gandhi

 NEW DELHI: Leader of Opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi criticized the President’s speech, calling it a repeat of previous years and a ‘laundry list’ of government achievements.

Rahul Gandhi raised concerns about unemployment, stressing that the future of the country depends on the youth.

He said the government has failed to address the unemployment issue despite the country’s growth.

He pointed out that manufacturing’s share of GDP has dropped from 15.3 per cent to 12.6 per cent, the lowest in the past 60 years. Mr Gandhi also criticized the government’s flagship ‘Make in India’ initiative, saying it had a good concept but failed in implementation.

He added that, despite India’s resources, the country has fallen behind others in organizing production and emphasized the need to focus on production. He concluded by reaffirming that the Constitution is supreme and will continue to guide the country.

 

 Earlier, BJP MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, moving the motion, listed the achievements of the Narendra Modi-led government, including public welfare schemes.

He mentioned steps taken by the central government to provide ownership rights to residents of 1,700 unauthorized colonies in Delhi. Mr Bidhuri also raised issues of poor road conditions, air pollution, and public transport in the city. He further accused former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal of lavish spending on his official residence.
