Rajasthan Congress leaders trying to 'run out each other' like in a cricket match: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who addressed a public meeting in Rajasthan's Churu district today, launched a scathing attack, saying that the Congress and development are enemies and will remain enemies. Due to the Congress' "misgovernance", inflation and unemployment are out of control in Rajasthan, the prime minister said.

Jaipur (Rajasthan) : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the Rajasthan Congress leadership is like a cricket team whose batsmen spent five years trying to run out each other.

PM Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress, saying that its leaders and development are enemies and will remain enemies. The relationship between the Congress and good intentions is the same as that between light and darkness, the prime minister said.

The Prime Minister also accused the Congress of "misleading" the ex-servicemen on the issue One Rank, One Pension (OROP) scheme for decades. Due to the Congress' "misgovernance", Modi said, inflation and unemployment are out of control in Rajasthan.
