The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government at the centre is high on publicity but low on performance, Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh said on Wednesday.
The All India Congress Committee general secretary in charge of Goa, was in the state to take stock of the party's organizational preparations with the state legislative elections tentatively scheduled in January next year.
"The BJP government at the centre is high on publicity but extremely low on performance. Economy is not doing well. Employment level has come down. Exports have come down," Singh said, also hinting at brewing communal polarization in the country.
"The differences between community and religion have been high. The prime minister is not able to control some leaders of the BJP who have spoken in communal manner against people belonging to the minority community," Singh also said.
