Earlier today, Rahul Gandhi attacked the ruling party over the use of bulldozers in riot-hit areas of Delhi and states like Madhya Pradesh and requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi to switch off “bulldozers of hate” and switch on power plants.
Gandhi tweeted, “8 years of big talk has resulted in India having ONLY 8 DAYS of coal stocks. Modi Ji, stagflation is looming. Power cuts will crush small industries, leading to more job losses. Switch off the bulldozers of hate and switch on the power plants!”
