PM Modi evading real issues, say opposition parties

West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee termed price rise as the biggest issue. She slammed BJP for its ‘minority bashing’ and alleged it had ‘blood on its hands.’ “Under the Modi government, prices of cooking gas have increased from ₹400 to ₹1,200. Free rice is cooked using gas cylinders which are so expensive… PM Narendra Modi is spending money in Russia and the United States but not disbursing poor people’s money for Mgnrega,” she said.
