Congress a disciple of Pakistan, says Modi in Gujarat

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday sharpened his attack on the Congress, calling it a “disciple” of Pakistan and said the neighbouring country was eager to see Rahul Gandhi as the Prime Minister of India after the Lok Sabha election.

Mr. Modi’s statement came after a former Pakistan Minister Fawad Hussain tweeted a video of Mr. Gandhi and captioned the post “Rahul on fire…”.
