AAP holds protest against Modi govt | IndiaTV News

India TV News  

New Delhi: The Aam Aadmi Party today held a protest here against the BJP government, accusing it of plunging the country into “despair” instead of ushering in the promised “achche din” during its one year rule. Pandey took a jibe at Modi's foreign trips saying the country had a Prime Minister who was perennially in “flight mode”. Addressing the rally, Karawal Nagar MLA and party spokesman Kapil Mishra, said, “One year of Modi government has been a total failure on all fronts. People are asking where is the Prime Minister or his ministers.” Pandey also slammed BJP President Amit Shah for “tom-tomming” coal block auctions and the formation of SIT on black-money as the government's achievements.
