They aspired for Jobs, but in return got a 45-year-high Unemployment rate, &#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said that they wanted economic empowerment, but in return the BJP gave a backbreaking price rise, which has reduced their savings to a 47-year low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They yearned for social and economic justice, but in return the Modi government gave them ever-rising economic inequality. Richest five per cent Indians own over 60 per cent of India&#8217;s wealth, while the middle class and poor suffer. They strived for a safe India for our women and children, but crimes against women, children, dalits, adivasis and backward classes have sadly increased by leaps and bounds, &#8221; Kharge said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;They wanted unity and harmony in a diverse country like us, but got hate and divisiveness. Modi government and BJP are crushing the dreams and aspirations of India&#8217;s youth, &#8221; the Congress chief said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His remarks came after the Prime Minister, who addressed a rally in Hyderabad Parade Grounds on Saturday, stopped his election speech midway after he noticed a young girl climbing a structure on which lights were fixed, in a bid to call for his attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Prime Minister repeatedly urged her to get down from the structure, saying that the condition of electric wires appeared to be not good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PM Modi was in the city to address a meeting organised by the Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi (MRPS), a community organisation of Madigas, one of the biggest constituents of Scheduled Castes in Telugu states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 119-member Telangana will go to polls on November 30 and counting of votes will be on December 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi- Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday slammed the Centre over the issue of unemployment after a girl climbed up an electric pole in Telangana during the Prime Minister&#8217;s rally, saying &#8216;young India is fed up with betrayal of the government&#8217;.
