TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ Rahul Gandhi takes on PM Modi in Bhiwandi. The Congress vice-president was granted bail by a Bhiwandi court Wednesday in a criminal defamation case filed against him for his alleged remarks on RSS’ alleged involvement in the Mahatma Gandhi’s murder.
Rahul said that Narendra Modi is running a government for 15 people. “India is queuing up, but Modi is smiling and crying. Mark my words, Modi will take your money give it to the rich. There are no rich people in queue,” Rahul said reacting to the PM’s claim that the poor were sleeping peacefully, while the rich were queuing up.
He added, “BJP is looting poor to pay the rich. PM Modi wants Indians to cower down. RSS wants to make all Indians slave. Happy I was able to fight this fight.”
The HC dismissed Rahul Gandhi’s plea to quash the criminal defamation case, but exempted him from a personal appearance before a magistrate in Bhiwandi. The defamation case was filed by RSS activist Rajesh Kunte.
