Rahul Gandhi chants 'Arhar Modi' in parliament

 

Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi finally spoke in this session of the parliament. After coming up with "Fair & Lovely" and "Suit Boot ki Sarkar", on Thursday he coined a new anti-Narendra Modi slogan while criticizing him for rising prices, especially of dals and vegetables - "Arhar Modi". “Modi government celebrated its second happy birthday afew days back. While addressing the people, he spoke about Make In India, Connect India, Digital India, but he does not talk about price rise. Not once did he talk about pulses, potatoes and tomatoes,” said Gandhi in the Lok Sabha. The Congress leader asked the prime minister to give a date when the price of Dal will come down.

 

“You can make empty promises to people. But today you must give a date to this house when the price of Dal will come down.” He also said that two years ago Modi urged the nation not to make him the PM but a chowkidar (guard) of the nation. “Today under the nose of that chowkidar, Dal is being stolen,” said Rahul. He ended the speech by saying, "People in villages are chanting a new slogan, 'Arhar Modi, Arhar Modi, Arhar Modi".
