Back on election trail, Sonia tells PM: ‘Speeches don’t feed people’
Vijayapura (Kar),
Holding her first election rally in two years, UPA chairperson president Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday accused the Modi government of discriminating against Congress-ruled Karnataka, and questioned his slogan of ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas’.
Launching a counteroffensive against the Prime Minister, who has relentlessly targeted the Siddaramaiah government over corruption, she wanted to know what happened to the institution of Lok Pal, the anti-graft watchdog that was proposed to be set up.
“The Modi government is discriminating against our government in Karnataka. Is this your ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas’ (together with all, development for all)?” she said.
The Congress leader said, “PM Modi is a good orator and speaks like an actor, but that would not fill the stomach of people.”
