Kharge slams Modi govt on China, GST and foreign policy

Kalaburgi, Sept 7 (UNI) Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge today mounted a blistering attack on the Modi government, accusing it of misleading the nation on security issues, exploiting the poor for electoral gains, and abandoning India’s long-standing tradition of a balanced foreign policy.
Addressing reporters here, Kharge said the government’s handling of the Chinese border situation exposed glaring contradictions. He alleged that while the government initially denied any intrusion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself later “intruded” (visited) into China, reflecting inconsistency at the highest level. “Such conflicting statements weaken India’s credibility and send mixed signals to the world,” Kharge remarked.
On the Goods and Services Tax (GST), the Congress chief said his party had always supported reforms that truly benefitted the poor. However, he accused the Modi government of complicating the system by creating multiple slabs. “When two slabs were enough to provide relief, they introduced four or five confusing slabs that ended up hurting the very people they claimed to help,” he charged.
