Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge criticizes the installation of "selfie booths" with photographs of Prime Minister Narendra Modi at railway stations, calling it a waste of taxpayers' money. He accuses the Modi government of being self-obsessed and spending public funds on cheap election stunts instead of providing drought and flood relief to states and releasing MGNREGA funds for opposition ruled states. Kharge also shares a copy of an RTI reply listing the stations where temporary and permanent selfie booths have been installed, along with their installation costs.
