Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge kicked off the party’s Lok Sabha campaign for the seven Lok Sabha seats in the Capital on Saturday by exhorting party workers to go door to door to save people from becoming “slaves” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“This is a fight to save democracy and the Constitution. If you fail to support the Congress in this fight, you will become a slave of Modi,” Mr. Kharge said while addressing party workers at Ramlila Maidan in east Delhi’s Geeta Colony. He said the PM had failed to deliver on his promises and was taking credit for the initiatives started by the Congress government at the Centre. He also said that instead of spreading love and brotherhood in the country, the BJP-led Central government was spreading hatred and fear among people.
