Kharge targets govt on ‘Make in India’ scheme, says it is classic case of ‘publicity than delivery’

NEW DELHI: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Saturday targeted the Modi government on the ‘Make in India’ scheme and claimed the BJP’s promise of making India a global manufacturing hub remains unfulfilled.

“Modi Govt’s ‘Make in India’ is a classic case of giving importance to publicity rather than delivery. In its 2014 Manifesto, the BJP made 10 promises to make India a “Global Manufacturing Hub”, none of which have been fulfilled,” he said in a post on X.

The Congress president claimed that the situation has become “worse”, with a “massive decline” of employment in manufacturing and share of manufacturing in the GDP. PT
