RLD chief Ajit Singh took a swipe at the BJP's "achche din" promise on Sunday, saying the good days were not meant for the people of the country but for Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself.
Addressing a rally here, which witnessed the top leadership of the SP-BSP-RLD alliance coming on one platform to kick-off the joint campaign of the "mahagathbandhan" for the first phase of the Lok Sabha polls slated for April 11, Singh said, "What has PM Modi done in five years? He was not talking about your achche din, but his own achche din."
"If the power of voting given by (BR) Ambedkar is taken away, then there will be no one to listen to you."
Claiming that the rate of unemployment had increased under the Modi government, Singh said "Modi asks the youth to make pakodas...when pakodas are eaten, someone will make them, what is the government's contribution in it."
Pointing out that Modi had promised to put Rs 15 lakh in the bank accounts of all the citizens after coming to power in 2014, the RLD chief said, "He never speaks the truth. His parents have not advised him to speak the truth."
