Bijnore: Without naming Rahul Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today delivered a stinging jab at the Congress leader, calling him the most joked about politician and one whose party was not willing to touch.
"If you check on google, no other politician has so many jokes on him as the Congress neta," PM Modi said at a rally in Bijnore in Uttar Pradesh, where a five-phase election will begin tomorrow.
The Prime Minister continued, "The way he talks...his antics are such that even senior Congress leaders stay 10 feet away from him."
"Akhilesh you embraced this kind of a leader when even his own party avoids him? Now I sincerely doubt your wisdom," PM Modi jibed.
The PM's latest attack on Rahul Gandhi comes in the middle of a firestorm in Delhi over his comments on his predecessor Manmohan Singh, who headed a Congress government at the centre for 10 years.
Rahul Gandhi said PM Modi's comments were an insult to the nation.
