AURANGABAD: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants the youth to remain busy in making social media reels, so that they stay distracted from pressing problems about education, health and employment.
Addressing a poll rally in Bihar’s Aurangabad, Gandhi charged the PM with promoting “addiction” to social media.
“Modi wants you to become addicted to making reels, Instagram, Facebook. This is the new high of the 21st century. He wants such a scenario because this would ensure that the youth remain distracted, and do not hold his government accountable for their problems about education, health and employment,” he alleged.
Gandhi also claimed that Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah “were indulging in ‘vote chori’ (vote theft) in Bihar, as they know the NDA would not win the assembly polls”.
“The INDIA bloc, if voted to power in Bihar, will be a government of the extremely backward, socially marginalised and Dalits,” the former Congress president asserted.
Slamming the NDA government in the state, Gandhi accused Chief Minister Nitish Kumar of turning the youth of Bihar into labourers.
“Question paper leaks are also a regular affair in Bihar, benefitting the financially rich students,” alleged Gandhi
