Modi’s veiled attack on Cong on implementation of MoUs

Gandhinagar, January 14: In a veiled attack on Gujarat Congress, Chief Minister Narendra Modi today said it would have been better if those in power 15 years ago were more concerned about school dropout rate in the state than talking about the MoUs that have not materialised.

“Today, the other states are discussing how to replicate the Gujarat model of development,” Modi said during the valedictory session of the 5th Vibrant Gujarat Summit (VGS) that ended here.

“A number of memorandums of understanding (MoUs) were signed during the summit, but there are those who keep track of only those MoUs which have not materialised,” he said.

“I would like to tell them, if they had thought about how many children had dropped out of school 15 years ago, it would have been better,” Modi said.
