'Congress won’t return to power even in 2090'

Taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi for his remarks about Congress coming back to power at the Centre in 2019, information & broadcasting minister M Venkaiah Naidu said on Wednesday the Congress vice-president was "daydreaming", according to a report published in The Times of India.

"I am surprised at the Congress vice-president's claim of bringing 'achhe din' in 2019. What is 'achhe din' for Congress? Scams, scandals, policy paralysis, inactivity, inertia, rising prices, undermining every institution etc, are legacies of the Congress rule. Are these 'achhe din'? Congress seems to be daydreaming about coming back to power in 2019.Forget 2019, it will not even be able to come back to power in 2090," Naidu said in a statement, according to the report in The Times of India.

He also hit out at TMC leaders for their remarks against PM Narendra Modi, saying it is the "lowest that politicians can stoop to" and reflects their frustration over the growing popularity of the PM and BJP, says the report in The Times of India.
