Priyanka hits back at Santosh Gangwar over ‘job jibe’

New Delhi: Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi on Sunday slammed Union Minister of State (Independent Change) for Labour and Employment Santosh Kumar Gangwar for that there were enough jobs in the country, but the employment seekers were not qualified.

Taking to Twitter, Gandhi said: “You have government for five years, you could not generate employment, those jobs who were left has vanished because of slow down you have brought, youth are seeking way that government will do something good that has not been done. You cannot insult North Indians and get away. This will not work.”

Gangwar made the statement while interacting with the media here on Sunday, adding that his Ministry was monitoring the job situation.

मंत्रीजी, 5 साल से ज्यादा आपकी सरकार है। नौकरियाँ पैदा नहीं हुईं। जो नौकरियाँ थीं वो सरकार द्वारा लाई आर्थिक मंदी के चलते छिन रही हैं। नौजवान रास्ता देख रहे हैं कि सरकार कुछ अच्छा करे।

आप उत्तर भारतीयों का अपमान करके बच निकलना चाहते हैं। ये नहीं चलेगा।https://t.co/2f9ZhGmVoT
