1. BJP criticizes Congress manifesto for 2024 elections.
2. Points out the use of photos from New York and Thailand.
3. Highlights disconnect within the Congress party.
New Delhi, April 05: The BJP has launched a scathing critique of the Congress manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, pointing out what they perceive as a lack of seriousness due to the inclusion of photos from New York and Thailand.
Sudhanshu Trivedi of the BJP highlighted the disconnect by mentioning the recent statement from the Congress’s social media chairperson, questioning the party’s awareness of who was handling their manifesto.
Trivedi showcased a photo from the Environment section, alleging it was from Rahul Gandhi’s favorite destination, Thailand.
Trivedi further criticized Congress President Kharge’s statement about manufacturing in India, asserting it as false and reflecting a flawed historical understanding.
He cited examples like CV Raman’s Nobel Prize in 1930 and the founding of the Indian Institute of Science in 1909 to counter Kharge’s claim.

Trivedi ridiculed Congress’s choice to name their manifesto “Nyay Patra,” accusing them of doing injustice to various sections of society.
The BJP expressed concern over the use of foreign photos in the Congress manifesto, suggesting it reflects a mentality of defaming India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi while borrowing images from abroad.
Trivedi emphasized that Congress has a track record of not fulfilling promises made in their manifestos, both at the central and state levels.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma questioned whether a foreign agency was involved in drafting the Congress manifesto, criticizing its content.

He also criticized the use of photos from Thailand and America in a manifesto purportedly representing India’s interests.
