Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi has continued his attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government’s economic policies.
Rahul used social media to target the PM Modi, telling him to stop his “hollow speeches”, start delivering or quit.
Referring to a news report that the government had hiked the price of subsidised cooking gas cylinders for the 19th time in 16 months, Mr Gandhi took a swipe at PM Modi on Twitter: “Expensive gas, expensive ration, stop making hollow speeches! Control prices, give jobs else quit the throne”.
The BJP, however, did not let Mr Gandhi’s attack go unchallenged. Responding to Mr Gandhi, BJP leader Sambit Patra tweeted about the “rampant corruption” when the Congress was in power.
“There were no jobs, no ration. Does the Shehzada (prince) deserve the throne,” he asked.
