Party general secretary Digvijaya Singh will address a press conference in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's constituency Varanasi tomorrow while Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad, Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge and party spokespersons Kapil Sibal and Randeep Singh Surjewala will train tgheir guns on the government in Delhi as part of the plan charted out by the Congress.
"Modi government has become one of rhetoric and theatrics. Government is yet to begin its principal agenda of governance and development. BJP has failed the people of India," AICC Communication Department Chairman Randeep Surjewala alleged.
In a series of tweets, Surjewala said that the state chiefs of Congress as well as CLP leaders will also bring out the state issues while Congress leaders will hold press confrerences across the nation on May 26 and May 28.
"With the successes achieved by the NDA Government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on various fronts from putting economy back on rails to restoring India's image internationally, the Congress appears to be clueless on what to say.
Naidu, the Minister for Parliamentary Affairs and Urban
Development, also mentioned that 33 Union ministers will be travelling across the country to report to the people on its "achievements" and policies across 200 centres.
"While we are confident, the Congress is diffident. We are moving forward and the Congress is pulling backward. The Congress is continuing with its negative politics and appears to have not learnt any lessons even after the recent verdict," he alleged.
Congress has planned to bring out a booklet titled "Do saal, Deshka bura haal" which will feature "omissions and commissions" of the government which came to power on promises of 'acche din'.
President Pranab Mukherjee's daughter Sharmistha Mukherjee will be addressing a press conference in Kolkata on May 27. The same day P Chidambaram will address a press conference in Delhi and Jairam Ramesh in Lucknow.
The Congress has also roped in a number of former chief ministers to address these conferences seeking to puncture NDA government's claims of achievements.
While the video will be released tomorrow, the booklet will come out on May 28.
