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…”.
Addressing four election rallies in different Lok Sabha seats in Gujarat, Mr. Modi doubled down on his charge that the Congress was planning to give reservation to Muslims. He said the party had a “dangerous mentality” and said its manifesto was written in the “language of the Muslim League”.
