"Modi & Shah are sellers and Ambani-Adani are buyers": Kharge's sharp attack on BJP-led Centre
Kalaburagi (PTI): Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday charged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah with selling state-owned factories established decades ago to Ambani and Adani.
He also challenged Modi to recover the looted money from the Gandhi family instead of blaming them though none of its members has been Prime Minister, Chief Minister or any Minister since 1989. "Modi says the Gandhi family looted the country. You are the Prime Minister, recover the looted money".
“Modi says he has done big things. What have you done? You are selling and eating the big factories former PM Jawaharlal Nehru had established,” Kharge said addressing a public meeting at Afzalpur in his home district of Kalaburagi.
The Congress has fielded Kharge’s son-in-law Radhakrishna Doddamani from Kalaburagi, which will go for polls on May 7.
He alleged: “What’s happening in this country is that there are two sellers and two buyers. The sellers are Modi and Shah and buyers are Ambani and Adani.”
Kharge claimed that Modi and Shah are "living for Ambani and Adani and not for the people of the country."
“They (Modi and Shah) want power for them (Ambani and Adani) and not for you,” Kharge told the crowd.

UP: Cars parked outside Congress office in Amethi vandalised, claims party
Amethi (UP) (PTI): About a dozen vehicles parked outside the Congress office in the Gauriganj area here were allegedly damaged by some miscreants, the party said on Monday.
Congress district spokesperson Anil Singh accused the ruling BJP of orchestrating the incident that took place on Sunday night and claimed that some people sitting inside the cars had sustained injuries.
Six people came in a car and damaged the vehicles. Some people got injured and were sent to the district hospital for treatment. A complaint will be made to the Election Commission, Singh said.
This is the result of the BJP's desperation, he added.
Congress district president Pradeep Singhal alleged that the incident was the result of state police's indifference.
Meanwhile, Gauriganj Deputy Superintendent of Police Mayank Dwivedi said the matter will be investigated and strict action will be taken against the guilty.
