The Congress leader highlighted the failures of the Modi-led government by criticising demonetisation , repealing Article 370, not listening to farmers, and not keeping inflation in check.

"You don't realise that during demonetisation, during the summer, so many people died, that is your minus point, and you think of it as a plus point. You used to claim that with demonitisation, black money would be finished, is it finished though? Also said that terror will end, but did terror finish? Just now, so many people died in Pahalgam," he said.

Narendra Modi took oath as Prime Minister for the third time on 9 June 2024 , With 293 MPs , the NDA comfortably exceeded the majority mark of 272 in the 543-member Lok Sabha after the 2024 general elections.

Continuing his jibe at BJP over Kashmir, he added,“You removed (Article) 370 (from Kashmir), put people in jail, and put 8 lakh soldiers there, but in the last 11 years did you give jobs to people, have you reduced inflation? The Petrol-diesel which you have bought for ₹35-40 you are giving the same for ₹100 to the people of the country. Farmers kept sitting for two years, you were not ready to listen to them.”
