NEW DELHI: Congress on Sunday accused PM Modi of misleading the country with claims on job creation and dubbed his government a failure.

Taking potshots at Modi’s claims in recent interviews, Congress spokesman Pawan Khera said, “He cannot hoodwink the country like this.”

The Congress spokesman said the Modi government had no major achievement to show to people with just nine months left in its five-year term, mocking that the PM had given himself an extension of 48 more months by pushing the deadline to deliver the projects to 2022.

Khera said there was a difference of opinion among cabinet members on jobs created over the last four years. He said while the PM claimed his government had given jobs to one crore people, his cabinet minister Nitin Gadkari had said there were no jobs.
