NEW DELHI — Showing her concern on the slowdown in businesses, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi on Wednesday criticised the Narendra Modi government for the poor shape of the economy and the Yogi Adityanath government in UP for increasing the value-added tax (VAT) on petrol and diesel.
In a series of tweets, she shared two advertisements by the Northern India Textile Mills Association and the Indian Tea Association titled ‘Indian Spinning Industry Facing Biggest Crisis, Resulting in Huge Job Losses’ and ‘Tea Industry in Crisis’, respectively.
ये विज्ञापन अर्थव्यवस्था के बारे में भाजपा सरकार के दावों की असलियत की पोल खोल रहे हैं।
अभी तक औद्योगिक संस्थाएँ विज्ञापन देती थीं कि हम आगे बढ़ रहे हैं। भाजपा सरकार के शासन में कईयों को विज्ञापन देकर कहना पड़ रहा है कि हम डूब रहे हैं, हमें बचाओ।

“These advertisements are revealing the reality of the BJP government’s claims about the economy. Till now industrial organisations used to advertise that we are moving forward. In the BJP rule, many have to advertise and say that we are drowning, save us. The rest you can understand,” she said in Hindi.
भाजपा ने अपनी चौपट और भ्रष्ट नीतियों का बोझ जनता पर डाला है। पेट्रोल और डीजल के दाम बढ़ाकर जनता की जेब काटना हमें कतई मंजूर नहीं।

In a separate tweet, she attacked the UP government saying the “BJP has put the burden of its collapsed and corrupt policies on the people”.
She accused the BJP of picking the people’s pocket by increasing prices of petrol and diesel. The UP government has increased the VAT on petrol and diesel on Monday midnight.
