JMM slams Modi's 11-year tenure, says India's global image has weakened
Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], June 10 (ANI): The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on the Narendra Modi-led government, alleging that the last 11 years of his leadership have seen '111 failures' that have pushed the country backwards.
The party claimed that India's diplomatic standing has deteriorated.
Addressing a press conference, JMM General Secretary Supriyo Bhattacharya said, 'Modiji has spent crores of rupees on his abroad trips and even after Pahalgam Attacks only Israel stood with us while everyone else did not take our side. The US President claims to ensure a ceasefire between India and Pakistan while the BJP is taking about nationalism. Where are the four militants who executed the Pahalgam incident?'
Bhattacharya also took a jibe at India's global positioning, claiming the country now needs to 'give an application' to be invited to the upcoming G7 summit in Canada.
On the domestic front, the JMM leader raised concerns over inflation, unemployment, and what he alleged was the misuse of institutions. 'Before 2014, MSMEs contributed 16 per cent to the GDP. Today, it's barely 7 per cent --the sector is nearly dead. The BJP had promised two crore jobs, but jobs were taken away.'
He also rejected Union Minister Smriti Irani's claims that the last 11 years were focused on the welfare of the poor and women empowerment.
'The BJP claims that 25 crore people have been lifted from poverty but they are one who are providing foodgrains to 80 crore people...Gold prices were Rs 28,000 per 10 grams in 2014 which has now increased to Rs 98,000 while the price of one dollar has increased from Rs 60 to 90,' he said.
The JMM also questioned the construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
'Even the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya has been constructed on orders of the Supreme Court and that too 12 kilometres away from where Ram Lalla was originally placed... the Ram Mandir has been constructed on orders of the Supreme Court and that too 12 kilometres away from where Ram Lalla was originally placed,' he said.
The remarks come as the BJP marks 11 years of Narendra Modi's leadership. PM Modi assumed office on May 26, 2014, and was sworn in for a third consecutive term on June 9, 2024.
Earlier, BJP leader Smriti Irani told ANI, '11 years of good governance were dedicated to the welfare of the poor, welfare of agriculture, and women empowerment. BJP workers, with a happy heart, heartily express their gratitude towards PM Narendra Modi... In the democratic history of our country, PM Narendra Modi has worked for the welfare of the country via various schemes... We pray for his strong leadership to continue...' (ANI)

‘No place for anti-people ideology': Samajwadi Party expels MLAs who cross-voted in Rajya Sabha polls; rebels had backed BJP candidate
LUCKNOW: Samajwadi Party on Monday expelled three MLAs who cast their votes in support of the BJP candidate in the Rajya Sabha elections. The party removed Abhay Singh from Gosaiganj, Rakesh Pratap Singh from Gauriganj, and Manoj Pandey from Unchahar constituencies for their actions against party principles and supporting policies deemed detrimental to various sections of society. "Samajwadi Party in public interest expels the following MLAs from the party due to their communal divisive negativity and supporting anti-farmer, women, youth, business, working professionals and 'anti-PDA' ideology, as opposed to the politics of socialist harmonious positive ideology: 1. MLA Gosaiganj Mr. Abhay Singh 2. MLA Gauriganj Mr. Rakesh Pratap Singh 3. MLA Unchahar Mr. Manoj Kumar Pandey The grace period given to these people for change of heart has now been completed, the remaining time period is remaining due to good conduct. In future also there will be no place in the party for 'anti-people' people and activities contrary to the basic ideology of the party will always be considered unforgivable. Wherever you live, be trustworthy," Samajwadi Party said in an official statement on X. Party sources indicate potential expulsion actions against additional rebel MLAs in the future. According to Samajwadi Party sources, seven MLAs, including Chief Whip Manoj Pandey, disrupted party unity by backing the BJP's candidate during the Rajya Sabha elections. This action has caused significant displeasure to party president Akhilesh Yadav . Post the Lok Sabha elections conclusion last year, Yadav began proceedings to terminate the membership of these seven MLAs. Following the Samajwadi Party's success in securing 37 seats in Uttar Pradesh during the Lok Sabha elections, seven MLAs sought meetings with SP leader Akhilesh Yadav to discuss party re-entry. However, Akhilesh Yadav refused to entertain their requests for meetings or readmission.
