In a speech Friday, Rahul Gandhi said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his friends have “broken the backbone” of India’s job market.
In Amethi, the Wayanad MP spoke at a rally for the election “PM Narendra Modi and his friends have broken the backbone of jobs in India. There won’t be jobs for the young people of this country in the future. You can teach them as much as you want. During COVID, no one paid attention to me, but you saw bodies in the Ganga River.”

Campaigning for the fifth phase of the seven-phased Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections has begun.
Rahul Gandhi finally hit the ground to campaign in Amethi, an actual state in the Indian election.
When the fifth voting phase comes around on February 27, 60 assembly seats will vote.
He questioned the government’s policies because they didn’t give people jobs. “Why doesn’t he (the PM) talk about jobs in his (election) speech? In Uttar Pradesh, why doesn’t he tell the young people in his state that he will give them jobs? So why not say how many people were hired and how many more jobs will be given to people in the coming years?”
In the context of promises of jobs in Uttar Pradesh, the Congress MP said that the Prime Minister was lying even more.
When the BJP said that “nothing happened in our 70 years,” they meant that nothing happened for Ambani and Adani.
“Remember that India’s biggest billionaires don’t give jobs; small shopkeepers, traders, and farmers do,” he said.
Also, he said that the Prime Minister said he would double the income that farmers get from their land and farms. Finally, “he passed three black laws.”
The goal of these three agricultural laws, a Congress MP said, is to “snatch away what the farmers are getting and give it to India’s top billionaires.” These laws have since been repealed.
With the first three phases of the seven-phased Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections over and campaigning for the fourth phase above, Rahul Gandhi finally hit the ground for electioneering in Amethi during the fifth phase of the polls in the politically crucial state, which has a lot of votes.
It’s time for the fifth phase of the election to come to an end.
People will vote in their fifth phase on February 27. In this phase, 60 seats in 11 districts in Uttar Pradesh will vote.
Amethi, Ayodhya, Bahraich, Barabanki, Chitrakoot, Gonda, Kaushambi, Pratapgarh, Prayagraj, Shrawasti, and Sultanpur.
