Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on Saturday took a dig at the Modi government as it completed nine years, saying politics was divided while ‘acche din’ ended and institutions were “captured” while society was “broken”. Sibal also called for a change of government in the 2024 general elections.
The former Union minister’s attack on the BJP-led NDA government came a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi completed nine years in office. In a tweet, Sibal took a jibe at the government using rhyming lines.
Nine years of Modi, Media is ‘Godi’ and India is Modi. Fear and deceit, no need for reform. Politics divided, ‘acche din’ stalled, opposition on the ground, and prominent leaders harassed. Sibal said, “Institutions were captured, society was broken.”
Sibal, who was a Union minister during the UPA-1 and UPA-2 governments, quit the Congress in May last year and was elected to the Rajya Sabha as an independent member with the support of the Samajwadi Party.
He recently launched ‘Insaaf’, a non-electoral platform aimed at fighting injustice. Sibal’s swipe at the government comes after the BJP highlighted the achievements of the nine years of the NDA government and said the country has seen “all-round development and inclusive growth” under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi.
