Gandhi’s remarks, delivered during a debate on India’s economic situation, included concerns over economic inequality, industrial competitiveness, and employment challenges under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership. However, his comparison of India’s development trajectory with China’s has drawn sharp reactions from the ruling BJP.

Sarma refuted Gandhi’s claims, asserting that India’s industries are thriving, its youth are excelling, and the nation is making significant strides under Modi’s leadership. He condemned what he viewed as an attempt to demoralise India’s workforce and businesses, affirming that the country remains confident and unstoppable in its journey toward becoming a global economic powerhouse.
“Our industries are flourishing, our youth are excelling, and under the visionary leadership of our Hon’ble Prime Minister, India is on the path to becoming a developed nation. No, Rahul—this is not done!” Sarma posted on X.
