Days After Being Called Out, Rahul Gandhi Reiterates 'No Fisheries Ministry In India' Lie

Senior Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi has landed in a soup yet again after he reiterated his lie of India not having a Ministry dedicated to fisheries.

"Just like our farmers farm the land, you farm the sea. Farmers have a Ministry in Delhi, you don't. No one speaks for you in Delhi", said Rahul Gandhi.

Similarly about a week ago he had made a "similar promise" to the fishermen of Puducherry.

Singh said that a ministry for Fisheries has already been setup by the Narendra Modi led Central government in 2019 also also urged Rahul Gandhi to visit the new fisheries ministry so that he can learn about its schemes.

The Department of Fisheries is one of the two departments under the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying which came into effect from February 2019.

Following Rahul Gandhi's today's statement, Giriraj Singh shared a copy of a question Rahul Gandhi himself asked to the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying with regards to the work being done to help fishermen and improving the fisheries infrastructure.goes
