Former Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Modi government and accused it of “betraying” the people by not keeping its promises”. She also alleged that corruption had taken “deeper roots” since it came to power.
In her address to the ‘Jan Akrosh Rally’ at Ramlila Maidan, the UPA chairperson alleged that the government has left no stone unturned in undermining institutions and targeting political rivals by misusing central agencies. She also made a reference to the “serious crisis” that had gripped the top judiciary, saying it had never happened before.

In her 10-minute address, she said unlike truth prevailing in the past, today falsehood, hatred, and violence were ruling the roost. “What happened to Modi ji’s slogan ‘na khaunga, na khane dunga’ as the roots of corruption have become deeper under his watch,” Sonia said.
It is saddening to see that our society is suffering from unprecedented violence and hatred today. People from every section of society are suffering. The nation is going through turbulent times under PM Modi: UPA Chairperson Smt. Sonia Gandhi #JanAakroshRally

“We will fight unitedly the directionless, anti-people Modi government, which has made false promises and betrayed the people. I am confident that the voice raised at the rally at the historic Ramlila Maidan will resonate across every household and our fight will be successful in the days to come. This government has not left any stone unturned in undermining constitutional institutions. Political rivals are being targeted through government agencies,” she added, as per PTI.
