TIL Desk/National/Chandigarh/ Congress President Rahul Gandhi has took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi by portraying him as a “boxer” who punched his party leaders like LK Advani and flattened the common man’s policies. He slammed the Modi government’s policies ranging from economy to those dealing with small businessmen and farmers.
Speaking at an election rally in Haryana’s Bhiwani, Gandhi said: “In the last election, India put a new boxer, Narendra Modi, in the ring. The 56-inch chest came to the ring. Facing him was a boxer — poverty, problems of farmers and corruption.
“The crowd was the people of this country. Also present were Narendra Modiji’s coach LK Advaniji and their entire team including (Nitin) Gadkariji. Then the country said, okay, this boxer will fight poverty, solve farmers’ issues end corruption and fight to put Rs 15 lakh into people’s accounts,” Gandhi said, getting a loud applause from the gathering.
