Critique of Government Policies and Economy

You were posting a reel at midnight, calling us friends, right? We're not friends now,

Yes, we're not friends anymore.

Now the friendship is over.

So much friendship.

Friendship. After demonetization, during COVID, our

You're arranging so many buses now. The buses that, during COVID, when migrant

workers were walking on foot, you couldn't arrange buses then.

You couldn't manage it. You're teaching us how the administration works. We are

researchers. We've been studying for many years. We know how

this government has wrecked the economy. Ask all the workers here,

ask all the sisters, all the comrades who work,

ask them whether their

wages have increased or not. When there's a protest in Noida-Manesar and so many people gather,

then you people don't come forward. You people

just tell them...

They pelted stones, they did this. Have you ever tried to find out

that

the minimum wage in our country has not been raised, and

the people whose votes are being struck off are mostly from that very community.

Minorities are not your voter base because your voter base

is sitting in the Sangh, right? They have placed their people in every branch, every

university, so what can the general public do?

You did not raise wages. Hunger in the country, all our indices... You are in the press.

What is the state of the press? Tell us, you are in the press,

what is the state

of the press today?

It is ranked 157th. There was a time when channels like NDTV would air

what was happening in Bihar, what the state of education was, what kind of

conditions we had.

There was Ravish Kumar. Ravish Kumar is still doing his work. So we are people who listen to Ravish

Kumar.

Because Adani is like a brother, right?

Ambani and Adani haven't left any TV channel, or any port in the country.

They haven't left a single airport, nor a single dock.

All the power plants that were once run by the state,

where the government used to have a role, have been

privatized so rapidly. Today, all of us standing here,

if there is a health-related problem in even one household, all of our

bank balances will plummet, and they tell us that we don't need money to protest.

We don't need money to protest. We need a dignified job. In this country,

we have it, but many of our comrades do not.

For example,

as soon as they attack, they ask why we are speaking up for their rights.

Because for them,

the most dangerous people are those who stand

with their fellow citizens and say, “Look, my rights are fine, but what about theirs?”

The greatest danger to them is from those very people.
