Karbi Anglong (Assam) [India], April 2 (ANI): Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of handing over India's agricultural, energy, and data rights to the United States.
He claimed that the deal benefits American farmers and companies while harming Indian farmers, small businesses, and industries.
Addressing a public rally in Karbi Anglong, Congress MP said, 'You might ask why Rahul Gandhi is speaking on the US-India deal, in Assam election campaigning? You need to understand where the pressure on you is being mounted. Narendra Modi signed the US deal, and he handed over 4-5 things to the US. PM Modi opened India's agricultural system to the US. No PM had ever done this before. Soybeans, pulses, fruits, and cotton have all been opened to American farmers by Narendra Modi. Indian farmers have small farms with fewer mechanizations.'
He claimed that US President Donald Trump controls Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging that India's key sectors are being handed over to the United States.
'US has thousands of acres of farms and several mechanizations. Indian farmers will get crushed and erased. Narendra Modi handed over India's energy security, the oil we purchase, to Trump. Today, if India wants to purchase oil from other countries, permission is needed from Donald Trump and America...Narendra Modi handed over India's data to Donald Trump. They can do anything they want with that data...Narendra Modi told Donald Trump that Rs 9 Lakh Crores worth of products will be purchased by India from American companies every year. So, small businesses and small & medium industries will be destroyed. Narendra Modi gave a lot to America, but America gave nothing to India...Why did this deal happen? It happened because Donald Trump controls Narendra Modi,' he said.
The polling for all 126 Assembly constituencies will be held in a single phase on April 9, while the counting of votes is scheduled for May 4. Assam will witness a fight between the incumbent BJP-led NDA government and Congress for the 126-seat assembly. (ANI)
