NEW DELHI: The Congress on Saturday hit out at the Narendra Modi-led central government over rising prices of fuel and inflation in the country through a series of tweets.
The Congress alleged that the government at the Centre is not one that listens to people and only looks after interests of the Prime Minister and his “capitalist friends”.
In one of the tweets, the party attacked the government over rising fuel prices, saying, “Thank god Santa rides a sleigh, he doesn’t need to pay hefty prices for fuel.”

“Jingle bells… Jingle bells… Jingle all the way. Oh what fun it would be to buy things… without burning all your savings away,” read another tweet where the party slammed the government over inflation in the country.

In another tweet, the Congress said, “He’s not making a list, The govt’s not checking anything twice; They have no data on- who’s naughty or nice.”

The post which said that we need a government that listens to all, read: “…Modi ji is only listening to his mann ki baat”. The Congress used the phrase ‘mann ki baat’, which is also a show hosted by the Prime Minister where he addresses the nation, in the said tweet to imply that PM Modi only does what he thinks is the best without considering public interest.

Taking a jibe at PM Modi and what the party called “his capitalist friends”, one of the tweets said: “Jingle bells, jingle bells, ports, airports, roads, railways, are just a few things Modi ji sells.”
