Latest News, Live Updates Today September 15, 2024: ‘Congress most dishonest party in country’: PM Narendra Modi in Haryana

PM Modi's accusation

In a fiery speech in Haryana on Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress party, calling it the "most dishonest party in the country."

Modi accused the Congress of being responsible for a litany of scams and scandals, including the 2G spectrum scam, the coal scam, and the Commonwealth Games scam.

"The Congress has looted the country for decades," Modi said. "They have no shame and no accountability."

Congress responds

The Congress party has hit back at Modi's accusations, calling them "baseless" and "motivated by political vendetta."

Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said that Modi's speech was "nothing but a desperate attempt to divert attention from his own government's failures."

Surjewala pointed to the recent economic slowdown and the rising unemployment rate as evidence of the Modi government's incompetence.

The facts

It is difficult to say definitively whether the Congress party is the "most dishonest party in the country."

There is no doubt that the party has been involved in a number of scandals and controversies over the years.

However, it is also important to note that the Congress party has been in power for most of India's post-independence history.

During that time, the party has also overseen a number of important achievements, including the Green Revolution and the economic liberalization of the 1990s.

The verdict

Ultimately, it is up to each individual to decide whether they believe that the Congress party is the "most dishonest party in the country."

There is no easy answer to this question, and it is likely to remain a matter of debate for many years to come.
