The attack from Congress has come just before US President Donald Trump and his family's two-day visit to India.

"69 lakh vacancies of the 2 cr promised by Modiji have been announced. Apply now. Hurry!" the Congress tweeted.

PM Modi will take Trump on a roadshow to the world's largest cricket stadium in the Ahmedabad's Motera.

The Ahmedabad Municipal Commissioner has claimed that around one lakh people are expected to be lining up to greet the American President.

President Trump claimed he has been told by PM Modi that 10 million people are expected to turn up along a 22-km-long road in Ahmedabad.

In the tweet, Congress also added a poster that mocked the centre over employment.

"Donald Trump Nagrik Abhinandan Samiti. Hiring Now.

Job description: Waving at US President Donald Trump.

Vacancies: 69 lakh.

Remuneration: Acchhe din (good days)”, Congress tweeted, in reference to PM Modi's comment after coming to power in 2014, when he said, "Good days are here.".

India's Gross Domestic Product is likely to grow 5 per cent in the current fiscal, the slowest pace in 11 years.

Congress has been raising concerns over unemployment and economic slum in the country.

India and the US are also likely to discuss mutually agreeable trade terms though reports say the chances of a big trade deal coming through are slim.

Trump will also discuss CAA and NRC with PM Modi during his visit.
