Rahul Gandhi attacks govt over development

 In a post in Hindi on X, Rahul Gandhi said, "The truth of Modi Ji's developed India: Your hard work, whose profit? The wheel of the country's economy is turning with your sweat and blood, but are you getting your fair share in it? Just think."

 The share of the manufacturing sector in the economy has gone down to the lowest level in 60 years and due to this, people are struggling for employment, the leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha said.

 Wrong policies in the agriculture sector have worsened the condition of farmers and farm labourers, Rahul Gandhi said, adding they are barely able to make ends meet.

 The real income of workers has either remained stagnant or decreased in the last five years, Rahul Gandhi said.

 "The harmful GST and income tax have made life difficult for the poor and the middle class, while corporate loans are being waived off," the former Congress chief said.

 Due to skyrocketing inflation, now not only the poor but also the salaried class is forced to take loans for their needs, he said.

 Rahul Gandhi on Sunday had announced the launch of a 'White T-shirt Movement,' championing the rights of the masses. He had accused the Narendra Modi government of turning its back on the poor. Gandhi had announced the launch in a post on X and urged people to be a part of it.

 "If you believe in economic justice, oppose rising wealth inequalities, fight for social equality, reject all forms of discrimination, and strive for peace and stability in our country, wear your white T-shirts and join the movement," said the video voiceover posted by Rahul Gandhi on X.

 The Congress has been attacking the government over its handling of the economy, claiming the issues of rising prices, decreasing private investment and stagnating wages are hitting the common people hard.
