“there are lakhs of unemployed waiting for the government to issue job notifications. This Congress government clearly is not interest in the welfare of people as much as it is in earning revenue from liquor sales.The government which cheated students by not reimbursing their fees, is now again cheating on its promise to give employment to 2 lakh people.”
