Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday asserted that the ongoing Lok Sabha polls were a choice between Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who celebrates Diwali among Armymen, and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi who “rushes abroad for vacations whenever the weather becomes uncomfortable”.
Addressing back-to-back election rallies in Karakat and Sasaram Lok Sabha constituencies in Bihar, Shah dubbed the INDIA bloc as the one comprising “scamsters guilty of financial wrongdoings worth Rs 12 lakh crore” which was taking on Modi, “with an unblemished record during the 23 years he was CM (of Gujarat) and the PM”.
He said that unlike Gandhi, who was “born with a silver spoon”, Modi has worked hard to reach the top, coming from an “ati pichhda (extremely backward class) family” and selling tea at one point of time to make ends meet.
