Congress president Rahul Gandhi called Prime Minister Narendra Modi a coward. Rahul Gandhi said Modi is scared of a debate on Rafale scam.
Amid the debate over the air strikes and tensions on the border, the Congress president not just refrained from making comments on the issue but tried to revive issues like demonetisation, GST and Nirav Modi.
"Loans of a few businessmen worth Rs 3.5 lakh were waived off [by Modi]. How much did Modi ji waive off for small units in Dharavi?" Rahul Gandhi questioned.
Gandhi said, "Chowkidar is not just a chor [thief], he is also a darpok [coward]. When I asked in the Parliament about Rafale he [Modi] had no guts to look into my eyes. He was looking here and there."
"Modi makes tall promises; farmer loan waivers, jobs, Rs 15 lakh. Is there anyone here who has got Rs 15 lakhs?" Rahul asked the crowd.
Rahul also criticised Modi over demonetisation.
"Did you see Mehul Choksi, Anil Ambani, or Lalit Modi in queue after demonetisation? He took money from your pockets in the name of fight against black money and gave it to a few businessmen," he alleged.
In what was seen as the launch of campaign in Maharashtra, Rahul also made a big announcement of waiving off farmers' loans in just 10 days.
Reaching out to the voters living in slum areas in Mumbai, Rahul announced that if they vote him to power, the Congress would give a 500-square-feet house within 10 days of coming to power.
