New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has no policy to deal with the LPG crisis and the same situation is being witnessed at this time as the people of the country had witnessed during the Covid. Rahul Gandhi wrote on social media on Monday, “Modi ji had said – will handle the LPG crisis like Covid and he actually did the same. Just like Covid, there is no policy, big announcements and the burden is on the poor. Cooking gas has become out of reach for migrant labourers earning a daily wage of Rs 500-800. Labourers returning home at night do not even have money to light the stove. As a result, leave the city, run to the village.”
He said that the workers who are the backbone of textile mills and factories are the ones who are crumbling. The textile sector is already in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The manufacturing sector is collapsing. Explaining the reasons for this crisis, Rahul Gandhi said, “And where did this crisis come from? From a mistake made at the diplomatic table that the government still refuses to acknowledge. When arrogance becomes policy, the economy collapses, workers migrate, industries are ruined, and the country is pushed back decades.” He urged people not to remain silent during times of crisis, saying that the question remains: why are the poor the first to die in every crisis? Don’t remain silent. This is not just a question of the poor, it’s a question of all of us.
