Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged Wednesday that the policies of the Centre had caused the loss of millions of jobs and appealed to people to make the Modi government “listen to their voice”.
Gandhi urged people to be a part of the Congress’s “Speak Up for Jobs” campaign.
“The policies of the Modi government have caused the loss of crores of jobs and a historic fall in GDP,” Gandhi wrote in a tweet.
“It has crushed the future of India’s youth. Let’s make the government listen to their voice,” the former Congress chief said.
Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said the promise was of providing millions of jobs every year and claimed that instead millions had been “snatched away”.
The youth has now woken up and are demanding an answer, he said.
