Congress Vs BJP: Congress criticized PM Modi's speech in Parliament, saying- only talked about the past, nothing new.

Congress Lok Sabha Whip Manickam Tagore on Tuesday criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech in Parliament. He said that the Prime Minister in his address focused especially on the problems of the past. Tagore also said that the speech of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi was 'visionary'.

Manickam Tagore said, "We were thinking that after the visionary statement of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi about the future development of India and making India a production hub, the Prime Minister will talk in the same direction.

He said, the Leader of the Opposition talked about the future and the Prime Minister talked about the past.
