"After failing to fulfil the achche din promise made during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, BJP has no moral right to bring out this manifesto...it is another attempt to hoodwink people of the state," she told mediapersons after release of the document by BJP chief Amit Shah. The promises made in the manifesto today are hollow, she added. Congress also hit out at BJP, terming the manifesto as a bundle of lies and alleged that it was out to rake up the Ram temple issue once again to hide its shortcomings. "People are now well aware that BJP does not desist from betraying even Lord Ram," UP PCC chief Raj Babbar said in a statement. The BJP manifesto is a "document of lies" based on false promises aimed at misleading the people, Babbar said.
