New Delhi, Mar 25 Terming the Congress manifesto released yesterday a"bundle of hollow"promises, the city BJP today alleged that it would not be fulfilled.

Its president O P Kohli alleged that the last five years of Congress rule was bad and the 65 per cent farmer population was suffering even today.

" Even after giving a package of Rs 70,000 crore the farmers are committing suicide. The government has admitted that about five lakh workers have been laid off," Kohli said in a statement here.

The BJP leader also took a dig at the Centre for making"false"promises of supplying wheat and rice at Rs 3 per kg in its manifesto.

During its five years regime, the Congress led UPA failed to control black marketing of essential food items. Also the employment guarantee scheme has been sacrificed at the altar of corruption, he alleged.
