Hitting out at the Modi government on the completion of its 100 days in office, the Congress on Sunday called it a period of “tyranny, chaos and anarchy.”
In a series of tweets, the Congress slammed the government on every aspect right from GDP to automobile sector to the economy as a whole.
“Three words that describe the first 100 days of BJP 2.0 – tyranny, chaos and anarchy,” it tweeted along with a video showing 100 failures of the government.

In the backdrop of eight sectors of the economy recording a growth rate below 2 per cent, the Congress said that “if the BJP continues this path of negligence & deceit, we are headed towards recession.”
Eight sectors have recorded a growth rate below 2% & our Finance Minister still refuses to accept that our economy is in free fall. If the BJP continues this path of negligence & deceit, we are headed towards recession. #100DaysNoVikas pic.twitter.com/xRW6ivjPCV

Calling BJP “incompetent” in handling the economy, the grand old party said a steep fall in GDP from last year is a direct result of the government’s ignorance & gross mismanagement of economy.
A steep fall in GDP from last year is a direct result of the govt's ignorance & gross mismanagement of economy. By disregarding voices of the industry, economists & former PM Dr. Singh, BJP has proved itself to be completely incompetent in handling the economy. #100DaysNoVikas pic.twitter.com/xWOOjkP4NB

“The automobile sector is facing its worst-ever crisis in years and all the govt has to say our economy is doing better than US & China. The solution to problems comes with acknowledging them first, which this govt has failed to do. #100DaysNoVikas,” it wrote in one of its tweets.

The Congress further called former Finance Minister P. Chidambaram and senior Congress leader DK Shivakumar’s arrest a mere tool to divert public attention from the government’s failures.

“The BJP treats the parliament like a notice board; bills are not debated or discussed but presented just to complete a formality. This is a sign of a weakening democracy. #100DaysNoVikas,” it said in another tweet.
Watch the video below, posted by Congress, showing the common man’s disappointment with the Modi government.

Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi also attacked the government. “Congratulations to the Modi Govt on #100DaysNoVikas, the continued subversion of democracy, a firmer stranglehold on a submissive media to drown out criticism and a glaring lack of leadership, direction & plans where it’s needed the most – to turnaround our ravaged economy,” he tweeted.
