Rahul Gandhi leads protest against PM Modi’s ‘U-turn government’ in New Delhi
New Delhi: Congress vice president led a protest with other party cadres in New Delhi lashing out at PM Narendra Modi’s governance on Tuesday.
Earlier, on Monday the Congress, in a booklet titled “Chhe Mahine Paar U-Turn Sarkar (Six months after, a U-turn government)” virtually cornered the Modi government for flip-flops on 25 key issues in the last six months.

AICC general secretary Ajay Maken released the 30-page booklet, which deals with issues like China, Pakistan, direct benefit transfer, Aadhaar, insurance Bill, Henderson Brooks report on the 1962 war, CAG, rail fares, clean politics, Article 370, and banning Rs 1,000 currency notes.
The booklet claims, “The Modi government increasingly appears to disarm the people of information, its propaganda machinery has only one goal hide facts, tell stories.”
