Kharge Slams Modi Over Job Creation Claims

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his assertion of creating eight crore jobs, accusing him of lying and misusing data. Kharge questioned Modi's promises of job creation and pointed out inconsistencies in government reports, highlighting the high percentage of unpaid working women and informal sector job losses.

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has strongly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his recent claim of creating eight crore new jobs. Kharge has accused Modi of rubbing salt into the wounds of the youth through repeated falsehoods.

The Prime Minister recently cited an RBI report to underscore his government's focus on stability and growth, leading to job creation and investor enthusiasm. Modi claimed that this has silenced unemployment critics.

Kharge, however, took to 'X' to question the accuracy and sources of these figures. Highlighting discrepancies between RBI and ILO reports, he challenged Modi on unmet job creation promises, sectoral job losses, and the plight of unpaid women workers. Kharge concluded by accusing Modi of using the RBI for political gains.
