Won’t utter “Wrong Words” against PM Modi, Says Rahul Gandhi
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi but promised he would not use even one “galat shabd” (wrong word) against him because he respects the post of the Prime Minister.
Mr Gandhi, who began his second day of campaigning for the second phase of poll scheduled for December 14, said he has learnt from the history of the Congress and the legacy of party leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel that one should “defeat his enemy with love”.
“Modi ji uses wrong words regarding me, talks senseless things, and did once in today’s speech as well. I would like to tell everyone from both the BJP and the Congress that Rahul Gandhi respects the position of the prime minister. However offensive words the prime minister uses about me, Rahul Gandhi is not going to say a single wrong word regarding the prime minister,” he said, addressing a poll rally in Kalol.
“And in Gujarat, we are going to defeat you with love, Modi ji,” quipped Mr Gandhi, who is set to assume the reins of the Congress in a few days from now.
During the day-long campaigning, Mr Gandhi offered prayers at Ranchhod Raiji temple at Dakor and Shamlaji temple at Shamlaji.
Exuding confidence that his party would dethrone the BJP from power in Gujarat, Mr Gandhi said the Congress government would listen to the people instead of delivering “Mann Ki Baat” as “Modi ji, (BJP president) Amit Shah ji, or (Chief Minister Vijay) Rupani ji do”.
Mr Gandhi also said that the assembly elections in Gujarat were not about PM Modi or himself or the BJP or the Congress but about “the future of the people of Gujarat”.
