Prime Minister Narendra Modi was busy doing his own public relations and has not done anything concrete so far, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi said on Tuesday.

“The NDA (National Democratic Alliance) government came to power in May (2014). The Prime Minister has just been doing his personal PR, but no concrete work has been done,” Mr. Rahul Gandhi said during a road show in New Delhi ahead of the Delhi Assembly polls.

“People are asking when will you (Mr. Modi) stop talking and start working? There is favouritism for some, and nothing is being done for the poor.

“Congress is the party of the poor. We will come back because we will keep standing by the poor, hold their hands and take them on the path of development,” Mr. Gandhi added.

Promises cheap power, water

“We have three promises. We will provide electricity and water on the lowest rate, will make contract workers permanent, and give right to shelter to the people of Delhi,” he told reporters after the road show.
