Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday hit out at the Congress Saturday, days after its leader Raj Babbar compared the rupee’s slide with the age of his mother, saying those who did not have issues to talk about, resort to abusing someone else’s mother.
Addressing a rally in Chhatarpur, Modi, in an apparent dig at UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, said 125 crore people of the country were the “high-command” of his government, which was “not remote-controlled by a madam”.
Hitting out at the Congress on Babbar’s remarks, he said, “When one doesn’t have issues to talk about, he resorts to abusing somebody else’s mother.”
Attacking Gandhi, Modi alleged that “coffers of banks were emptied for the rich during the madam’s government”. “However, our government opened doors of banks for the needy youth,” Modi said.
The prime minister asked why the Congress was worried about Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan being called “mama”.
He said the Congress was voted out of power in Madhya Pradesh 15 years ago because it indulged in the politics of divisiveness.
