New Delhi: Senior Congress leader and AICC general secretary Digvijay Singh on Saturday took potshots at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging pitiable situation of farmers during the NDA government tenure.
Singh, who took to Twitter early today, wrote: “When there was a fall in oil prices, Modiji had said that it was his luck that is benefiting the people. Now, unseasonal rains are adversely affecting the crops of farmers. Is his luck responsible for it too?
मोदी जी जब तेल के भाव घटे आपने कहा आपके भाग्य से घटे। अब किसान की फ़सल पर ओले पड़ रहे हैं फ़सल तबाह हो रही है वो भी आपके भाग्य से ?

Singh's tweet was directed at PM Modi's rally at Delhi's Dwarka area when he had sought a majority for BJP in the national capital by presenting himself as a 'lucky' person.
Further, taking swipe at NDA government's Land Bill, Singh said, “Subhash Chandra Bose had given a slogan – Give me blood and I promise you freedom. And, Modi's slogan is – Give me your land, I promise you unemployment.”
सुभाष चंद्र बोस-तुम मुझे ख़ून दो मैं तुम्हे आज़ादी दूँगा। मोदी - तुम मुझे ज़मीन दो मैं तुम्हे बेरोज़गारी दूँगा।

“Modi's slogan is – Give me your subsidy and I'll reduce the taxes of capitalists. Good days have come, but for whom? For a pair of swans in Gujarat?” Singh tweeted.
मोदी - तुम मुझे तुम्हारी सब्सिडी दो मैं अमीरों के टेक्स कम करूँगा । अच्छे दिन आ गये। किसके लिये ? गुजरात के दो हन्सो के जोड़े के लिये।

He also said, “Before Independence there was a war cry – Sarfaroshi ki tamana ab humare dil mein hai. And, during Modi's regime farmers are saying – Khudkhushi ki tamana ab humare dil mein hai (There is a desire in us to commit suicide).”
अहमद भाई ने एक सभा में ठीक ही कहा। "आज़ादी के पहले नारा था 'सरफ़रोशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे दिल में है और अब मोदी के राज्य में किसान कह रहा है

मोदी के राज्य में किसान कह रहा है 'ख़ुद कुशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे दिल में है "।

While drawing comparisons between UPA and NDA government, Singh said, “UPA government had forgiven Rs 72, 000 crores debt of farmers. Does PM Modi have the courage to forgive the debts of farmers?”
कांग्रेस - यूपीए सरकार ने किसानों का ₹ ७२००० करोड़ का क़र्ज़ माफ़ किया था । मोदी जी आप किसानों का क़र्ज़ माफ़ करने का साहस दिखा सकते हो ?
