Smriti Irani is “sycophancy” of Prime Minister-Congress

Janjivan Bureau
New Delhi : Congress on Saturday hit back at Smriti Irani alleging that due to “sycophancy” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi the HRD Minister had no time left for her ministry.
“She is going to Amethi and making strong statements against Rahul Gandhi to do sycophancy of Modi. So she is not getting time to run the ministry,” AICC general secretary Ambika Soni said at AICC briefing. She alleged that the directors of IITs and IIMs are a harassed lot and there is a controversy in the IIT Chennai.
“Instead of giving certificates to others, she should look at how the institutions under her ministry are run,” Soni said.
NSUI chief Roji M John said that the HRD minister has made a “mockery” of her ministry and her cabinet portfolio is under “threat” and alleged that attacking Rahul Gandhi is her “only survival tactic”.
Attacking Irani for daring Rahul for a debate, the NSUI chief raked up the issue of her educational qualification saying considering this she should be “debating a child”.
“Smriti Irani is facing stern opposition from various academicians, vice chancellors, teaching fraternity. She has made a mockery of the HRD Ministry due to which her cabinet portfolio is under threat. She was removed from the BJP National Executive for her non-performance.
“Now it is but obvious that attacking Rahul Gandhi is her only survival tactic to keep her bosses, especially the Prime Minister happy,” John said in a statement.
