Akhilesh Yadav in an interview to NDTV's Prannoy Roy said, "I am ready for a debate (vaad-vivaad) with the PM." Mr Yadav, who was subjected to a verbal blowout from Prime Minister Narendra Modi yesterday, offered the same response today at his rally. "I can swear by the Ganga that I have provided electricity to religious places in towns like Mathura, Kashi. Now let the PM swear by the Ganga that that is not the case."
