Congress says PM is holding Rozgar Melas in a bid to ‘save his image’

The Congress on Monday claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is holding Rozgar Melas to “save his image as he is feeling the heat of an election year”.

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge described the event of Mr. Modi giving away 51,000 appointment letters by addressing a Rozgar Mela virtually as “EMI — Empty Manipulative Instalments”.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Mr. Kharge termed the exercise a “PR stunt”. “By promising two crore jobs annually Modi ji is distributing a few thousand recruitment letters to our youth in the form of EMIs. Modi ji, if you had even an iota of concern about the future of the youth, you would not have played with their aspirations by participating in this PR stunt. The youth of the country have recognized the BJP’s lies, gimmicks and betrayal,” Mr. Kharge said in the post.
