He said, "Modi govt has disrupted India's foreign policy. In the last four years, they have made this a divisive policy. They have pursued this in a cavalier manner, non-serious manner".

"The PM is carried away by his own propaganda. Today it is a matter of concern that we have mismanaged our relations with major capitals of the world, with major strategic partners and our immediate neighbourhood" Anand Sharma said.

Former prime minister Manmohan Singh has blamed the Modi led government of mismanaging the Jammu and Kashmir issue.

He said, "Modi Govt has mismanaged Jammu and Kashmir like never before, the atmosphere is deteriorating day in and day out, its obvious from the fact that our borders are insecure, be it cross-border terror or internal"

He added,"When Modi Ji was campaigning he made lots of tall promises, those promises have not been fulfilled. He said we will provide 2 crore jobs, we have not seen even 2 lakh jobs".

P Chidambaram, former Finance Minister has said that number of people below the poverty line went up under the BJP government.

He said, "It's the biggest achievement of Dr Manmohan Singh that 14 crore people were listed out of poverty. BJP governmentpushed people into poverty. Number of people below poverty line went up. It's the greatest disservice BJP govt did to people of India".

The Congress party organised the plenary session on Saturday to unveil its political roadmap and vision for the next five years.
