Violent protests are taking place in many states of the country against the Agneepath scheme. Trains were set on fire in many states including UP, Bihar, Telangana. Protesters are vandalizing and setting vehicles on the streets. During a TV debate on this issue, BJP spokesperson Rajyavardhan Rathod said that Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi or Priyanka Gandhi has made any appeal to the youth so far? In response to which Congress spokesperson Alok Sharma asked whether Modi ji appealed?
Modi ji made any appeal: Rajyavardhan Rathod said, “I am praising Alok Verma, at least he appealed but your leaders have made any appeal to the youth till now? Responding to this, Alok Sharma said, “Where is Sonia Gandhi do you know? You don’t read the newspaper do you? He had surgery yesterday. Did you Modi ji make any appeal?” Rajyavardhan Rathod told Alok Verma that you are creating nuisance on the national channel. On which the Congress spokesperson said that if you laugh at such a big incident, then you will have to create a nuisance.
The anchor raised the question that the way violent protests are taking place at railway stations, who is instigating these youths? To which Alok Sharma said, “The government was frying pakodas, was there such a big conspiracy. Such a huge violence took place in 16 states. Are these people just rhetoric? Where were the investigating agencies?”
He further said, “On one hand you say they have to be made young, on the other hand you will throw out 75% of the people. what is this?” The Congress spokesperson said, “The traders did not understand when demonetisation happened, farmers did not understand when the Kisan Bill came. When Agneepath came, the youth did not understand. How do they get the bill?
Today youth is saying Vardi Do or Arthi Do: While talking on Agneepath scheme, Congress spokesperson Charan Singh Sapra said that the Tamashajeevi government should stop the spectacle, today the youth is saying Vardi Do or Arthi Do. He demanded to convert the assurance to provide employment to 75% of the youth under the scheme. To which BJP leader Majoj Tiwari said, “What we say, we guarantee only. Whatever we have been told, we have fulfilled it. We had told the farmers that the price of food grains will increase, so today let’s see what was the MSP in 2013-14 and what is it today.
