Lok Sabha Elections 2024: PM Modi prioritizing industrialists over common people's welfare

Taking aim at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Gandhi criticized the government's prioritization of industrialists over the welfare of the common populace. He highlighted the disparity in resource allocation, citing the waiver of loans for industrialists contrasted with insufficient funds for essential welfare programs like MGNREGA.

Drawing attention to electoral financing, Gandhi scrutinized the BJP's acceptance of funds from affluent industrialists through electoral bonds, contrasting it with the financial constraints faced by the Congress party. He framed the impending Lok Sabha elections as a battle between the impoverished masses and a select group of billionaires.

"Farmers demand MSP, youth seek employment, women seek relief from inflation, yet their voices remain unheard," Gandhi reiterated, emphasizing the Congress's commitment to fulfilling its electoral promises once in power.
