BJP MP criticizes Congress for claiming credit
A BJP MP named Lahar Singh Siroya is upset with Congress leaders.
He says they are taking credit for investments in Karnataka, but they used to say the Indian economy was bad.
He thinks the current government under PM Modi made the economy good, so companies like Foxconn want to invest.
He also says that making Karnataka a technology hub was not just Congress's doing, but many governments over the years.
