Too little, too late: Kharge takes swipe at PM over 'Rozgar Mela'

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday over the distribution of the latest batch of appointment letters under 'Rozgar Mela', saying "too little, too late" aptly sums up this "stunt" as the government nears its tenth year. Taking a swipe at the prime minister, Kharge said in a tweet in Hindi, "Modi ji is again distributing 'recruitment letters' in the name of employment. In the event, 50,000 letters are from the Ministry of Railways alone. There are 3,01,750 vacancies in Railways. Thirty lakh posts are vacant in government ministries." "'Too Little, Too Late' – This aptly sums up the stunt done in the tenth year of the Modi government," the Congress chief said.

मोदी जी, फिर रोज़गार के नाम पर “भर्ती पत्र” बाँट रहें हैं।

Event में 50,000 पत्र रेल मंत्रालय के ही है।

रेलवे में 3,01,750 पद ख़ाली हैं।

सरकारी मंत्रालयों में 30 लाख पद ख़ाली हैं।

“Too Little, Too Late”

— मोदी सरकार के दसवें वर्ष में किये गये इस Stunt पर सटीक बैठता है।

Kharge's dig came as the prime minister addressed the 'Rozgar Mela' where appointment letters were given to 71,506 recruits in different ministries and departments.
