State Secretary of the Marxist Communist Party K. Balakrishnan said that Prime Minister Modi has launched an attack on the free bus travel scheme for women.
In a statement issued in this regard, he said, “Modi’s attention has turned to the free bus travel scheme for women. Narendra Modi, who speaks loudly about the rowdy culture, if the state governments do anything to help the poor, it is immediately free, has now launched an attack on the free bus travel scheme for women in Tamil Nadu.
Due to this journey, the number of people traveling in the metro train has reduced by 50 percent and he shed tears. Free bus travel scheme for women is being implemented in Tamil Nadu from 2021. 2.53 crore people have traveled by metro train in 2021, the period of Covid. In 2022, it has traveled 6.09 crore people.
In 2023, it has become 9.11 crore. Year after year, the number of metro rail passengers has increased by crores and not decreased. Modi has lied. Apart from this, Chennai has not allocated even a single paisa for the second phase of metro rail work till date.
At the same time, Modi has given away about Rs 2 lakh crore a year to big businessmen by reducing corporate tax to 8 percent from 2019. Similarly, Modi, who collects even the education loans of the poor, has waived off the loans of the big capitalists in 9 years alone amounting to Rs 14.56 lakh crore. He never shed tears.
He took advantage of the senior citizens’ privilege on train journeys and enjoyed it. Narendra Modi, who is happy to impose 5% GST even on rice and wheat, is unable to accept a scheme that would benefit poor women, destitute, domestic workers and construction workers.
While it is natural for Narendra Modi, who is running a government for Adhanis, to be upset and irritated by the concessions to the daily grind, his speech as a prime minister is absolutely reprehensible. In Tamil Nadu only two metro lines operate in Chennai. Women’s free bus travel benefits all the nooks and crannies of Tamil Nadu. By criticizing this scheme, Modi has once again openly announced that he is the prime minister for big businessmen”. mentioned.
