In a pointed remark aimed at Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar underscored the necessity of hard work, dismissing the idea of instant results. Jaishankar addressed the Indian community, reflecting on India's development under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's administration.
Jaishankar highlighted the extensive infrastructure efforts of the last decade, stating that real progress demands substantial human resources, steadfast policies, and consistent effort. 'Life is not 'khata khat',' he emphasized, advocating for perseverance and commitment in nation-building projects.
Jaishankar's comments come in response to Gandhi's earlier election promise to transfer Rs 1 lakh to women from poor households 'khata khat', suggesting immediate execution. The remarks underline a broader narrative of long-term dedication versus short-term promises in Indian politics.
