BJP censures Rahul for abusing PM Modi
New Delhi, Jan 24: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday censured Congress President Rahul Gandhi for using unparliamentary language for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Addressing media persons here, Union Minister Manoj Sinha said that we strongly condemn Rahul Gandhi for abusing Prime Minister Modi.
"Even a District Panchayat level leader would not use the language to attack opponents that Rahul has used for criticising Prime Minister Modi," said Sinha, adding that it was basically the real character of Rahul.
Rahul Gandhi has been attacking Prime Minister Narendra over the Rafale aircraft deal, Punjab National Bank scam accused Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi.
Addressing
a
rally
in
Amethi
on
Wednesday,
Rahul
accused
the
"watchman"
(Prime
Minister
Modi)
of
"giving"
Rs
30,000
crore
to
industrialist
Anil
Ambani.
The
charge
has
been
repeatedly
denied
by
the
Modi
government
and
the
Reliance
group.
The
Congress
chief
also
said
while
farmers
were
in
distress
with
ever-mounting
debts,
Modi
was
busy
helping
his
industrialist
friends
by
waiving
off
their
loans.
While
answering
a
question
about
Priyanka's
entry
into
politics
and
its
impact
on
the
BJP,
Sinha
said,
"Enthusiasm
about
Priyanka
is
in
Delhi
and
media.
She
is
not
even
being
noticed
in
East
UP.
On
Wednesday,
Rahul
had
made
Priyanka
Gandhi
Vadra
Congress
General
Secretary
in-charge
of
East
UP
and
senior
Congress
leader
Jyotiraditya
Scindia
of
West
UP.
Sinha also alleged that the Congress was befooling farmers on the poll promise of farmer loan waiver in its ruled states.
"The Congress returned to power in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan by promising to waive off the loan of farmers. But instead of waiving off the loan of farmers, the loan of Congress leaders and workers is being waived off," Sinha alleged.
