Modi pure as Ganga; Sonia, Rahul a family of thieves: BJP

LOP Rahul Gandhi and PM Narendra Modi

NEW DELHI: Calling PM Narendra Modi pure like the holy water of the Ganga, BJP Wednesday hit out at Congress MP Rahul Gandhi for his denunciation of the “Gujarat model” and accused the Gandhi family of being the most corrupt and “chor parivar (family of thieves)” in the country. BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia’s attack on Rahul came after he alleged during his public meetings in Bihar that the Gujarat model, projected as a showpiece for growth when Modi was the state’s chief minister, was “all about vote chori”. “If there is one family that is the most corrupt and ‘chor’ (thief), then it is the ‘nakli’ (fake) Gandhi family. Sonia Gandhi, Robert Vadra and Rahul Gandhi are out on bail in corruption cases.” Bhatia also reminded Rahul how his “chowkidar chor hai” slogan against Modi had backfired. Modi is “pure like the Gangajal” as he is fully dedicated to the service of people, Bhatia said, as he criticised Rahul for levelling an unfounded allegation and using tasteless language against the PM.
