Addressing a campaign rally at Udgir in Latur district, she claimed unemployment was at its highest in 45 years and 70 crore people were without jobs, despite which 30 lakh posts lying vacant in the Central government have not been filled in the last ten years

"If the BJP claims nothing happened in the past 70 years (under previous dispensations) then let us believe that IITs, AIIMS, big industries etc were all built now," she said, adding that the ruling party was "ranting" all the time about the Congress being at fault

Hitting out at the NDA government, she said there is an uncle in every wedding who gripes about everything and gives sermons

"Now, if this uncle says there is a political party that will bring an X-ray machine into your house, scan all your savings, mangalsutras and gold, which will be taken and the wealth redistributed, you would say he has lost it," Gandhi said

But these are the same things Modi is putting forward by using his position, she claimed

Speaking in Latur, Priyanka Gandhi said the country had seen great prime ministers from the Congress fold as well as from other parties, like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, but "he (Modi) has brought down the stature of the prime minister this low"

"Instead of seeking votes for the work done in the last 10 years, he is resorting to illogical talks about a political party wanting to steal your ornaments using an X-ray machine," she claimed
