Rahul Gandhi targets Modi’s Gujarat development model again, calls ‘MoUs’ a failure

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi continued his attack on BJP on Wednesday, calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “fake MoU model” a “failure”, and promising Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s model of development.

Gandhi started the third and last day of his Navsarjan Yatra in Saurashtra of poll-bound Gujarat by climbing 650 steps to reach the hilltop temple of Chamunda Ma at Chotila where he joined several other devotees in offering prayers.

“We never expected Rahul Gandhi as our fellow devotee. It was quite a surprise,” said Bhimbhai Arjan, a local.

Later, addressing a gathering, Gandhi took a dig at the Modi government’s policies, asking why “Vikas has gone crazy?”, referring to a popular jibe that has gone viral on internet under the Gujarati title “vikas gando thai gayo che”.

“India’s economy has been destroyed. But everyone is quiet because they are afraid to speak against Narendra Modiji. These are not my words. Senior BJP leader Yashwant Sinha has written this in a newspaper article today,” he said.
