PANAJI: In an apparent jibe at the
BJP government, the national president of the Indian
youth Congress, Srinivas B V, on Tuesday said that its
train doesn’t have engines, only non-functional bogies.
“That is why India and Goa are suffering in all areas. Be it unemployment, inflation or any other issue,” Srinivas said at a press conference along with Goa youth Congress president Varad Mardolkar.
“Youth of Goa are in trouble.
The BJP government has sold the jobs by fixing the rate. Goa ranks second in unemployment after Haryana. BJP
failed to create jobs and hence youths are suffering,” he said.
Srinivas said that once Congress forms government in Goa, the process of resuming legal mining will start.
“This will create job opportunities and mining dependents can heave a sigh of relief. Rahul Gandhi has taken these issues very seriously and we solve them on priority.” He charged the BJP-government with indulging in corruption in the purchase of ventilators and also slammed it over the three linear projects.
