Some people always count problems: PM

Moscow: In an apparent swipe at his detractors back home, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said some people only talk about problems while his government was trying to resolve them.

“There are some people who all the time are engaged in counting problems and keep lamenting about them while there are some others who try to find solutions to the problems,” he said while addressing a ‘Friends of India’ event here.

Asserting that India is making attempts to resolve these problems, he said ,”results in this direction are now showing up”.

While Modi did not elaborate, he was apparently referring to problems being repeatedly highlighted by Opposition parties.

His remarks to a gathering of about 3,000 against the backdrop of the NDA government’s attack on the opposition for stalling the crucial reforms legislations like the GST during the just concluded Parliament session.
