Rahul Gandhi gives Modi govt ‘zero out of 10

Rating the year-old Narendra Modi government a zero on 10, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi accused it on Monday of playing “vendetta politics”, as he vowed to fight for a mega food park project in his constituency that was cancelled by the Centre.

Gandhi, who kicked off a three-day trip to Amethi to meet cultivators who have suffered crop loss because of inclement weather, also took a dig at the Prime Minister’s frequent foreign visits and said he did not have time for farmers back home.

“Had the food park been set up, it would have changed the fate of farmers. By cancelling it, the Modi government has dealt a blow to farmers. He has snatched it from them and not from me. We will put pressure on the government to get it back,” he said at a public meeting. “The PM went to the US, Canada, China and Mongolia, but has not visited the houses of hailstorm-hit farmers.”
