“It has been 50 years since his grandmother announced to remove poverty from the country. Before 2014, they ran the government through remote for 10 years and are saying that they have got 'jhatke vala' mantra, where did they get this 'jhatke vala' mantra from? Tell me, is this not a mockery of the poor? Is this not an insult to the poor? They make such claims and because of this they become laughing stock and the country does not take them seriously,” he added.
Notably, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi claimed in a recent election rally that if voted to power, the Congress Government will transfer Rs 1 lakh (in a year) to the bank account of one woman of every poor household in the country, leading to erasure of poverty in one fell swoop.

“One of their companion's manifesto says that they will eliminate nuclear weapons from India. Will any country think like this? Nuclear weapons are necessary for India in today's era... When the enemies have so much power and we say that we will destroy nuclear weapons, for whose benefit are you saying this? People are making such a promise. Can they protect the country? Just like their thinking, their manifesto is also dangerous," he said.
The Communist Party of India (Marxist), a part of INDIA bloc, in its manifesto has promised "complete elimination of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction including chemical and biological weapons."
