DEHRADUN: In a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra accused him of delivering repetitive speeches in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand while doing little when natural disasters struck.
Addressing a rally in Uttarakhand, Priyanka highlighted the essence of democracy, emphasizing the power of the electorate to shape their future through voting every five years.
In her address, Priyanka pointed out the Prime Minister's recycled rhetoric, revealing how his recent speech in Rishikesh mirrored one from five years ago.
She criticized Modi for labeling Uttarakhand as "Devbhoomi" (Land of the Gods) without providing substantial relief during times of crisis, particularly referencing the devastation in Himachal Pradesh last year.
Priyanka highlighted the stark contrast between Modi's promises and actions, recounting the lack of support from the central government during the Himachal Pradesh disaster, where Congress leaders actively engaged in relief efforts while BJP leaders remained absent.
She claimed that the relief provided in Himachal Pradesh was primarily from the state government, as the central government showed reluctance to assist.
