PTI, BHARATPUR/NAGAUR: Accusing the Congress leadership of losing touch with the ground reality, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Wednesday said those who cannot tell ‘moong’ from ‘masoor daal’ are now taking about farmers.
At rallies in Nagaur and Bharatpur, Modi pitched the December 7 assembly polls in Rajasthan as a battle between him, a “kaamdar” who does the work, and a ‘naamdar’ (dynast), a jibe at Congress president Rahul Gandhi.
He said Gandhi’s close aides shamelessly called Naxals and Maoists revolutionaries, and referred to the death of a paramilitary jawan from Bharatpur in an encounter in Chhattisgarh. “Will you forgive those who have insulted the martyr of Bharatpur?” he said at the rally in the city.
He said “naamdar’s people” had called the Army Chief a ”street thug”, recalling the row triggered months back by a remark by Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit against General Bipin Rawat.
