Never seen a PM who lies so much: Mallikarjun Kharge hits out at PM Narendra Modi

Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge accuses PM Modi of deception on demonetization, unemployment, and MSP, calling him the "biggest liar" in Indian politics.

"I have never seen a Prime Minister who lies so much, makes so many mistakes, and deceives the youth - Mallikarjun Kharge"

Kalaburagi, June 11

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his completion of 11 years in office. Kharge criticised PM Modi and said he has never seen a PM who tells so many lies.

The Congress President said that he has been in politics for 65 years, and alleged that PM Modi is deceiving the youth and taking votes by luring the poor.

"I have been saying this in Parliament for a long time, and I have never seen a Prime Minister who lies so much, makes so many mistakes, traps people, deceives the youth, and takes votes by trapping people. I have been in politics for 65 years. He has lied on everything and not even one has been implemented", Mallikarjun Kharge told reporters in Kalaburagi on Wednesday.

Furthermore, the Congress President highlighted that PM Narendra Modi does not answer whenever he is asked about anything, whether it be demonetisation, MSP, or unemployment.

"When we ask him, he does not have any answer, whether it is about demonetization, unemployment or MSP, there are so many such issues. He has never told the people that he has told such lies. He just keeps on saying one thing after the other and says that his 11 years are over", Kharge added.

Speaking over the issue of the caste census to be redone in Karnataka, the Congress president explained that there are several criteria that the Karnataka government has made that will remain the same. There is a need to survey because it is 10 years old, and in this period, many people have come into the SC, ST and OBC.

"There are a few criteria that have been made by our Siddaramaiah government, socio-economic criteria and other criteria will remain the same. If something is missing, they will add it. The survey has to be done because it is 10 years old. In 10 years, many people have joined ST, SC and OBC. Many people have been added, and a survey has to be done to see which community people have come where, and nothing else", Kharge added.

On Tuesday, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar said that the caste census would be redone to allay doubts of various communities over the sanctity of data.

Strong words from Kharge ji, but where was this energy when Congress was in power? Both sides play politics with people's lives. We need constructive criticism, not just mudslinging. 🤷‍♂️

As a young voter, I'm tired of this blame game. Instead of pointing fingers, opposition should present alternative policies. Modi ji has done good work in infrastructure, but yes, unemployment is a real concern that needs addressing.

Kharge sahab has a point about unanswered questions. Demonetization impact was never properly explained. But calling PM a liar is too harsh - every politician makes promises they can't keep. That's our political system's flaw, not just one person.

After 65 years in politics, Kharge ji suddenly notices lies? What about all the scams during UPA? Pot calling kettle black. We need new leaders with fresh ideas, not these tired old debates.

The caste census discussion is important. Data should be updated regularly to ensure proper representation and benefits reach those who need them most. This is one area where Karnataka government seems to be doing right thing.

Whether Modi ji or Congress, all make tall promises before elections. But we common people just want good roads, electricity, jobs and fair prices for our crops. Less politics, more development please! 🙏
