NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of waiving off loans amounting to Rs 16 lakh crore for his billionaire friends. Rahul stated that this act is a “crime” that the country will never forgive.
Gandhi pointed out that the waived-off money could have supplied gas cylinders to the entire country at just Rs 400 for 20 years, covered the Indian Army’s expenses for three years, and provided free education up to graduation for every youth from Dalit, tribal, and backward societies.
In a post on X, the former Congress chief highlighted that the waived-off money could have been utilized to alleviate the suffering of Indians, but instead, it was used to create hype for the likes of ‘Adanis‘.
“Narendra Modi has waived off the loans of his billionaire friends amounting to Rs 1,60,00,00,00,00,000 i.e. 16 lakh crore rupees. With this much money: 16 crore youth could have got jobs of Rs 1 lakh per year, by giving Rs 1 lakh per year to 16 crore women, the lives of their families could have been changed. Countless suicides could have been prevented by waiving off the loans of 10 crore farmer families,” the former Congress chief said.
