'Garibi hatao' was biggest 'jumla' of Congress for generations: PM Modi

IndiaTimes Saturday, 14 December 2024 ()
During a Lok Sabha debate commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Indian Constitution, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress party's slogan "Garibi Hatao" (Eradicate Poverty) as the "biggest jumla" (false promise) in Indian history. He argued that while the slogan benefited the Congress politically, it failed to uplift the poor, contrasting it with his government's poverty alleviation initiatives.
