Rahul turns Gujarat fight into Pandava-Kaurava tussle

TIL Desk/National/Valsad (Gujarat)/ Drawing an analogy with the Pandava-Kaurava tussle in the epic Mahabharata, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi has said that the fight between his party and the Bharatiya Janata Party in Gujarat was one between “truth and lies”, where the truth lay on the Congress’s side.

Gandhi said that while the prime minster was armed with his “government, police, army, governments in Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh”, he had truth on his side “and we need nothing other than truth”.

“The fight is between truth and lies. Kauravas had a huge army, weapons, and Pandavas only had truth and nothing else. I would like to tell you that we only have truth and nothing else,” he said at a rally at Nana Pondha town in the tribal-dominated Valsad district.

Gandhi resumed campaigning in the poll-bound state after returning from Rae Bareli where he had flown to meet the victims of Wednesday’s blast at an NTPC power plant. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has failed in providing jobs to the youth, and instead of creating two crore jobs every year as promised by him, only one lakh jobs are being generated a year, Gandhi said.
