PM Modi insulted Bengaluru by calling it garbage city says Rahul

Bengaluru: Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Friday called Prime Minister Narendra Modi a “characteristic liar”, and said he had offended Bengaluru by referring it to as a garbage city. 

Gandhi’s judgment comes a day after Modi assaulted the Congress governance in Karnataka for annihilating the cityscape. 

“Calling Bengaluru, the garden city and the pride of India a garbage city is insulting,” Gandhi tweeted and attached an infographic detailing the money spent by the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance as compared to funding provided by the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance government on urban infrastructure.

On Thursday, Modi at a rally in Kengeri impacted the Siddaramaiah government for purportedly transforming India’s Silicon Valley into a “crime valley” and Bengaluru into a “crime capital”. 

In spite of the fact that Bengaluru was respected the world over as a garden city, Modi stated, the state government had transformed it into a “garbage city”, as it had no concern for basic amenities.

Gandhi in his tweet stated: “Building lies comes naturally to you, but you seem to find building cities very difficult. The data nails your lies.”

The attached infographic, sourcing the Union Ministry of Urban Development, expressed: “Congress-UPA gave 1,100 percent more funds to Karnataka’s urban areas contrasted with Modi government. “Urban infrastructure funds to Karnataka (from) Congress: Rs 6,570 crore (and from) Bharatiya Janata Party: Rs 598 crore.”
