Dehradun: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that India doesn’t have a PM but a king who believes that the public should remain quiet when he takes decisions.
He also accused the Prime Minister of leaving farmers on roads amid the COVID-19 crisis for a year, adding that Congress would never do that.
“Earlier (during UPA regime) India was led by a prime minister of the country but today’s India is being led by a king, who just takes decisions and listens to no one…a PM should work for everyone, listen to people…Narendra Modi ji is not a PM, but a king. He ignored farmers for almost a year, because a king doesn’t talk or listen to labourers and takes his own decision for them,” he said while addressing a gathering of farmers at Kichha Mandi of Uttarakhand.
“Congress will not shut its doors on farmers, youths, labourers or poor. Our party wants partnership with them,” he added.
Polling for 70-member Uttarakhand Assembly will take place on February 14 and the results will be announced on March 10.
