Modi talks only about himself even in Karnataka election, criticises Rahul Gandhi
Congress' Rahul Gandhi criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday, claiming that he only talks about himself and nothing else, even in the state of Karnataka.
Additionally, he demanded to know why Modi was silent on the subject of corruption in Karnataka and never mentioned Basavaraj Bommai, his party's chief minister, BS Yediyurappa, or state Home Minister Araga Jnanendra.
Gandhi emphasised to the populace that the Karnataka Assembly elections on 10 May are not about Narendra Modi but rather for them and their future generations.
"Have you seen the meeting of the BJP? Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives and does not take the name of any leader. The way I mention the name of former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Congress state president D K Shivakumar, or Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge, but Modi will never talk about their leaders," Gandhi said at a public meeting here in Shivamogga district.
