Jodhpur, November 6: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday derided the ED, CBI and the Income Tax Department as "jawans" of Narendra Modi, and said before the prime minister hits the campaign trail he sends the central agencies to target the opposition. Addressing a rally in Jodhpur in Rajasthan ahead of the November 25 assembly polls, the Congress president also said the prime minister is thinking of the poor now because it is election time. His attack came days after the prime minister announced the extension of the free ration scheme for five years.
Kharge accused the Modi government of "troubling the poor and supporting his industrialist friends like Adani." In a swipe at Modi, Kharge said a king, chief minister or prime minister usually helps the poor, but one man is helping the rich after getting votes of the poor. "In his (Modi) era, the rich are becoming richer and the poor are becoming poorer," he said, adding Prime Minister Modi is thinking of the poor now because elections are approaching.
