RAEBARELI (UP), May 19: Congress Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday claimed that an “economic shock” is coming and it will not hit “Adani, Ambani, or Modi,” but the youth, labourers, and small traders.
“Very, very tough times are coming,” the leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha told reporters here.
Gandhi said a major economic “storm” not seen for many years is on the way.
He also accused the prime minister of not following his own call for austerity.
“Instead of taking action, Narendra Modi is telling the country not to go on foreign trips, and Narendra Modi is making rounds across the world. This is the state,” he said. Gandhi also alleged that “Ambani-Adani structure” will not last long.
“The structure, which he (Modi) has made — the one of Adani and Ambani, it will not remain intact, and will crumble. And, sadly, the loss will be felt by the common people. In other words, they will remain in their palaces, and the entire shock will be experienced by the youth and people of UP,” he said.
On Tuesday, Gandhi, the Lok Sabha MP from Raebareli, landed at the Lucknow airport and left for his constituency straight from there.
He was received by UP Congress chief Ajay Rai and Congress Legislative Party leader Aradhana Mishra at the airport. Gandhi is on a two-day visit to the party bastions of Raebareli and Amethi. (PTI)
