NEW DELHI: Piling on PM Modi for asking people to adopt Covid-type austerity measures in wake of the West Asia crisis, opposition parties said the PM always seeks sacrifices from people to avoid accountability for his failures. They also accused him of duplicity and asked why was he claiming “all is well” during poll campaign just days ago.Congress’s Rahul Gandhi said the PM’s demands on dos and don’ts “are not sermons but proof of failure”. He said, “In 12 years, he has brought the country to such a pass that the public now has to be told what to buy, what not to buy, where to go and where not to go. Every time, they shift responsibility onto people so they can wriggle out of their accountability. The compromised PM is no longer able to run the country.”India’s economy is in doldrums and the threat to food security is real, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge alleged. Party MP Manickam Tagore said, “Modi is repackaging economic failure as moral advice.”SP chief Akhilesh Yadav accused govt of spreading fear instead of using its endless resources to tide over the crisis. He asked why did Modi not remember the crisis when BJP leaders took thousands of chartered flights and stayed in hotels for campaigning. RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav mocked Modi, saying he had, during the 2024 elections, said the “opposition will snatch your mangalsutra” while he is two years later asking people to stop buying gold.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosFormer TMC Minister Sujit Bose Arrested By ED In Municipality Recruitment ‘Scam’PM Modi Slams Destination Weddings Abroad, Urges Indians To Avoid Foreign Travel’Voted For Whistle’: MDMK Chief Vaiko’s House Helps’ Meeting With CM Vijay Goes ViralRahul Slams PM Modi’s Crisis Appeal | NIA Probes Bengaluru Security Scare IntensifyTMC Leaders Turn On I-PAC After Bengal Poll Rout, Raise Explosive Claims Against FirmAfter PM Modi’s ‘Save Oil’ Appeal, Rajnath Singh Chairs Key Energy Security Review Meeting’Deeply Shocking’: TVK Ally Questions Vijay Over Vande Mataram Priority At Oath CeremonyTVK Blames Governor’s Office As Tamil Anthem Row Explodes After Vijay’s Oath CeremonySC Asks Mamata To File Fresh Pleas Regarding Victory Margin Being Less Than SIR DeletionsCM Vijay Meets MK Stalin Amid Treasury Row, Fuels Buzz Over Tamil Nadu’s Political Reset123PhotostoriesGold price inflation: Trending alternatives to traditional gold jewellery in 2026Ripe vs Raw Papaya: Which has more nutrition and 5 ways to consume them during summerWhy Kumar Vishwas doesn’t keep these 2 things in his kitchen and shares his Aloo Tamatar Sabzi recipe10 wise quotes by Sudha Murty on love, life and marriageThese 10 daily habits could be the real reason you feel tired, stuck, and brokeAishwarya to Tara: Indian celebrities expected to shine at Cannes Film Festival 20265 stunning flowering plants that can cause Hay Fever7 shocking facts about lions that prove they are far more dangerous than most people think5 summer dinner sabzis you can make with just 2 tbsp of mustard oil10 things to do with your parents before it’s too late — Moments you’ll never regret123Hot PicksCBSE class 12 resultModi on buying goldOil prices todayPune child rape-murder casePerambur election resultIndia-New Zealand FTASugarcane price hikeTop TrendingRCBYesterday Match ResultIPL Points TableUS Iran warTilak VarmaChandranath Rath MurderIPL Orange Cap 2026AIADMK splitPM Modi WFHPBKS vs DC Match Preview
