NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's penchant for coining catchy names for his various schemes, a video posted by news agency ANI shows.
"Make in India...all different (scheme) names (like) Swacch Bharat, Connect India, I've even forgotten all those names..." Rahul said Monday evening at a public meeting in Bengaluru, and paused, when someone from the audience jumped in and reminded him of 'Startup India'.
That was Rahul's cue to ad lib there on.
"...yes, yes, Startup India, Stand Up India, Sit Down India, Move Left India, Go Right India, but not one person is getting employment" from these schemes, the Congress vice president said. "These are big speeches but they are hollow", Rahul added.
Given that it's exam results season, Rahul also decided to award marks to the PM in employment generation.

"The minimum marks required to pass are 40 (of 100), (but) Narendra Modiji has received zero out of 100 in creating jobs," he said, according to ANI.
The Congress leader also alleged that the PM uses government money to publicise his various schemes.
"I believe the amount of money he puts in for publicity, that shouldn't be done at all because this is the government's money," Rahul said.
Earlier this month, at a rally in Andhra Pradesh, Rahul said that PM Modi promised he would give employment to more than two crore people "but till now not even one lakh have got jobs",
