Rajasthan Congress today kicked off a statewide campaign to "expose" BJP's alleged misgovernance by holding a 'Pardafaash Rally' in Churu district.
Addressing a gathering in Sardarshehar town, state Congress president Sachin Pilot said despite having a majority in both Centre and state, BJP government has failed to live up to people's expectations.
"They formed government by making false promises and misleading people. But now all are feeling cheated as the promises have failed to realise. Winning elections doesn't mean you start dictating," Pilot alleged.
He claimed the demonitisation decision shows that the government has no sympathy with people who have suffered numerous problems after the move.
He said Congress is ready to support the government in eliminating corruption and terrorism but the notes ban had failed. Even after 50 days, problems are as they were earlier, he claimed.
Taking a dig at Narendra Modi, Pilot said the Prime Minister talks about cashless economy and encouraging Paytm but termed it as risky as 60 per cent shares of the company were with China. Bank and personal details are vulnerable to crime, he said.
Banks have received ample money post demonitisation and now loans should be waived for the poor like it was done for top industrialists, he said.
Raising the issue of women's security, he said despite a woman being the state's chief minister, women are not feeling safe. Rape of a minor girl in Churu was the latest example of the poor law and order situation in the state, he said.
He said youth were facing unemployment and Rajasthan was lagging in development and leading in matters of atrocities. Government has shut 18,000 schools and is gearing to close another 800, he claimed.
