The speeches given by PM Narendra Modi in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha are going viral on social media. Now, Congress president Rahul Gandhi has reacted to it. The Congress President issued a statement and accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of protecting those behind alleged corruption in the Rafale deal and said he needs to answer the country on questions posed to him on it and on farmers and jobs instead of making allegations in Parliament. Rahul Gandhi made the accusation and dubbed the speeches as a political and campaign speech. “We expected a vision. Instead we got a visionless election speech. It didn’t have the gravitas or maturity you would expect of the prime minister,” he said in a statement.

Rahul Gandhi said Modi seems to have forgotten that he is the prime minister and not an opposition leader.

Alleging that something wrong has happened in the Rafale jet deal with France, Rahul noted that the country has to understand that the prime minister talked about corruption and had said he will launch an attack on it.

Here is the full statement by Rahul Gandhi:-

Echoing Rahul Gandhi’s views, Congress Parliamentary Party leader Sonia Gandhi asserted that the prime minister has said nothing new and he is repeating old things. “People are interested about their jobs, they want to know about their future,” she said after Modi’s reply to the debate in the Lok Sabha on the motion of thanks on the president’s address.
