On our PM's HBD, he's a gift that keeps on giving. Here's a thread.

Promised 15L in everyone's accounts, but forget that, our GDP has shrunk at -23% (2/ n)

No money to compensate states for GST and they are forced to borrow, but money for 20k/crores for central vista. Out of which 800 + crores in the cost of new parliament building. (3/n)

Promised 2crore jobs, but around that same number have been unemployed during the lockdown. Record high of 23.5% Indians are unemployed (4/n)

Was fed-up with corruption during UPA, but refuses to divulge details of PMCARES, or why Rafael were so expensive. (5/n)

Wants the government to be criticized as that strengthens the govt but would jail critics, students, intellectuals w/o batting an eyelid. (6/n)

Talks about peace and harmony, but his IT cell army are the ones spreading hatred, calling for war with china and being the OG tukde tukde gang. (7/n)

Says no 'foreign' country crossed the borders, but now there are Chinese soldiers with heavy army presence in Leh. (8/n)

During the lockdown asks people to bang utensils etc for our healthcare and front line workers, spends crores dropping flowers from helicopters, but DOES NOT have the actual number of medical staff who died fighting covid (9/n)

Talks about being a govt of the poor, yet does not know how many migrants lost their job or how many of them died during the lockdown. (10/n)

Talks about world unity and peace, but also talks about identifying rioters from their dress in the same breadth. (11/n)

Has his bh@kts talk about Death of Democracy when referring to MH while completing ignoring what happened in Kashmir? The crimes rates against women in UP and MP. The Gestapo version police force under Yogi? (13/n)

Claims to have won the war over corona when we have 90k+/day cases, people are dying by the dozen, economy is shrinking (14/n)

Talks about equality, and development and acche din but there is no hearing for Dalits? Muslims? Women?
