Modi lashes out at Rahul over corruption

Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP’s Prime Ministerial Candidate Narendra Modi on Sunday lashed out at Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi over the corruption issue. While recently Rahul said that he is determined to fight corruption in the country, Modi raised controversial ‘Adarsh housing scam’ where the Maharashtra government gave out ‘all clear’ to the accused Congress leaders.

“The speech of a Congress leader yesterday left me befuddled. He belongs to a party which is neck-deep in corruption. But he spoke with such an innocent demeanour that it appeared he belonged to a different party. It was an unparalleled example of audacity. Look at the paradox. He was speaking of corruption just after the Congress government had tried to bury the Adarsh scam,” Modi said at a Mumbai rally.

“The Congress is mired in corruption. It has no vision for development. All these years, the Congress has been playing vote-bank politics at the cost of the country’s security and progress. The Congress party’s bad governance is the root cause of all our problems. The jobless youth have to shell out money to get a job in the government sector. The Congress has no concern for the country’s youth,” he added.

Modi  also announced the catch line for next year’s Lok Sabha Polls, which is ‘Vote for India’.

“We have so far voted for one party or another. The time has come to vote for India to free the country of corruption, nepotism, communal strife, price rise, vote-bank politics and bad governance,” Modi said.
