A day after Amit Shah met industrialist Ratan Tata and actress Madhuri Dixit-Nene to highlight the achievements of the Narendra Modi government, Congress appealed them to not fall for the BJP lies.

Sanjay Nirupam, the president of Mumbai Regional Congress Committee (MRCC) wrote separate letters to Tata and Madhuri and urged them to understand the truth of BJP government which has failed miserably in giving good governance to the people of the country.

“I beseech you to understand the truth and not fall for the lies of Amit Shah. I am sending a booklet to you which clearly identifies and explains that the BJP has not been able to do anything for the people of this country in the past 4 years,” he said in the letter to Ratan Tata. 

“…. you have always supported secular forces all your life and clearly the BJP has spoiled the secular fabric of our country,” Nirupam said in the letter.

In the communication to Madhuri Dixit, he wrote: “As an artist, you can understand how different forces work together in the creative space as well and this has clearly suffered during the BJP rule. We should work together to stop these forces from gaining ground”.

Speaking about the rising unemployment and corruption in the country, Nirupam added, “In the past 4 years, the BJP government has failed on all fronts whether it be on economic parameters, social harmony, or international relations”.

The Mumbai Congress chief in his letters also reiterated the fact that the BJP government's ill-conceived fiscal policies have hurt the industry and economy including small businesses, agrarian economy and corporates.
