"In his interview later in the day, he said, 'Rahul does not listen'. Do you know what it means? It means that the pressure of ED and CBI does not work on Rahul," Mr Gandhi said
Congress's Rahul Gandhi mocked Prime Minster Narendra Modi today over his speeches in parliament and the subsequent interview to ANI, saying "he spent all his time on the Congress". "I am not afraid of Narendra Modi; his arrogance makes me laugh," he added, speaking at a rally in Uttarakhand, where elections begin on February 14.
PM Modi, in his speeches in parliament, only "gave his whole time to the Congress" but he did not answer my queries on China, Mr Gandhi said at Manglaur in Haridwar district.
"In his interview later in the day, he said, 'Rahul does not listen'. Do you know what it means? It means that the pressure of ED and CBI does not work on Rahul," Mr Gandhi said to whoops of approval from the crowd. "He (Rahul) doesn't listen to me. No matter how much pressure I put on him, he does not backtrack. He does not listen," he added.
"Why would I listen? Narendra Modi, though notes ban, through a faulty GST (Goods and Services tax), has ruined India's small traders, mid-sized businesses, the farmers and labourers," Mr Gandhi said, adding, "I am not afraid of Narendra Modi; his arrogance makes me laugh".
