Guwahati: In a sharp critique, Assam MP Gaurav Gogoi has launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging a pattern of governance that has consistently undermined the economic well-being of farmers, the middle class, shopkeepers, and industries. Gogoi asserted that the Modi administration’s actions reveal a fundamental agenda: the systematic dismantling of the constitutional rights of Indian citizens.
“PM Modi has only one goal- how to abolish the constitutional rights of the people in India and therefore, again and again, he took such decisions which caused harm to the farmers, small and middle class people, shopkeepers and industries suffered losses,” Gogoi stated, emphasizing a perceived deliberate strategy to weaken the foundations of Indian democracy.
Gogoi further spotlighted the government’s perceived inaction in the face of escalating economic pressures, particularly the rising costs of essential commodities. He pointedly referenced the recent increase in LPG prices and the ongoing volatility in fuel costs. “Today, look at the economic crisis that has come about the US tariff, their government is silent on it, the price of gas cylinder has been increased by Rs 50 but they are silent on that,” he remarked, underscoring the government’s alleged silence on pressing economic concerns. He also stated that people have also not received any relief in petrol and diesel prices, adding that the government remains silent on the real issues affecting the country.
In contrast, Gogoi positioned the Congress party as a staunch defender of constitutional principles, pledging to restore the rights envisioned by B. R. Ambedkar. He also asserted the party’s commitment to addressing the nation’s economic woes, framing the upcoming political contests as a battle for the soul of Indian democracy.
Adding to the political narrative, Gogoi addressed the burgeoning enthusiasm within the Congress party, particularly in Gujarat, following Rahul Gandhi’s strategic announcement regarding the 2027 state elections. “There is tremendous enthusiasm in Gujarat. The 2027 elections will be a prime contest for the Congress Party, and we are committed to winning it. We have received strong support from the Gujarat Congress after the AICC plenary session,” he reported, signaling a renewed focus on regional political battles. Highlighting the Congress’s focus on economic policy and constitutional values, Gogoi added, “For us, upholding the Constitution is not just a slogan – it is a firm commitment, unlike the BJP.”
