Addressing a press conference, Raut said the new agri marketing laws as well labour reforms brought in by the Centre were anti-people.
"The Centre has failed on all fronts, be it business, agriculture, education, GDP, inflation, international relations. The seven-year rule of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government has been fatal for the country. It has also left people to fend for themselves during the Covid-19 pandemic," he said.
Congress workers staged protests in the urban and rural areas of Nagpur against the Modi government during the day.
