Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on October 25 said the Narendra Modi government at the Centre had “no vision” for the future and its move to hand over public sector undertakings to a select few industrialists had led to a high unemployment rate. Ms. Vadra said the PSUs, when privatised, would cease to generate jobs and there would be no reservation.
Ms. Vadra was addressing a rally at Ardawata village in Rajasthan’s Jhunjhunu district ahead of the State Assembly election. Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot announced at the rally that the women heading the households would get ₹10,000 annually in instalments if Congress was voted back to power in the upcoming polls.
