PANJIM: Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the coastal State, the Trinamool Congress’s (TMC) Goa In-Charge Kirti Azad launched a scathing attack on Modi’s ‘Double Engine Sarkar’ over rampant corruption plaguing the State.
Highlighting the failure of the Narendra Modi-led BJP government both at the Centre and in the State, Kirti Azad said, “The rule of Narendra Modi is synonymous with unemployment, price rise, and an overall deteriorating state of affairs. Under the ‘Double Engine Sarkar’, Goa’s development and prosperity have deteriorated. Narendra Modi frequents the State, and peddles hollow promises only for Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to manipulate and ‘Modi’fy’ them.”
He further added, “PM Narendra Modi who calls himself ‘Vikaspurush’, is nothing but ‘Satyanashpurush’ for Goa. The BJP government has ruined the State.”
Speaking of people’s sufferings due to the mis-governance of the BJP government, Azad said, ‘‘Former Governor of Goa Satyapal Malik, appointed by the BJP, made an explosive statement that the Goa government and the Chief Minister of Goa run a corrupt government in every sphere. His statement reveals how the BJP government has failed the people of Goa.”
Adding on, he said, “The rampant corruption in Goa has devastated everyone. Instances of food scams are a slap on the face of Goans who are working hard to make both ends meet.”
