Chidambaram takes on PM over lack of jobs

On the issue of lack of jobs, senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Monday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said if his claims on employment are true, then there is no unemployment in this country.

Chidambaram tweeted, ‘If PM’s claims on employment are true (interview to a Tamil newspaper),
then, there is no unemployment in this country. Not only that, many persons are holding two jobs!

Also, India is giving jobs not only to Indians but to unemployed youth from all over the world!’

On financial frauds committed across the country, the former Finance Minister said, ‘Enforcement Directorate has given itself and the Modi government a certificate of honour. Not only the five well known persons, but 36 persons have fled the country after allegedly committing financial fraud.’

‘Who was the watchman who left the doors open?’ Chidambaram added. (UNI)
