'Hitler' Modi, Mulayam 'Mussolini' hand in glove: Beni

The minister said Modi, who has new found love for Sardar Patel, does not talk about Mahatma Gandhi.  “Gandhi made Patel the Home Minister of the country, who is all powerful, even more than the Prime Minister. It was Patel who was most grieved when Gandhi was assassinated,” he said.

Beni alleged that the recent Muzaffarnagar riots were the result of friendship between ‘Hitler' and ‘Mussolini'.  Regarding Congress' debacle in assembly elections of four states, Beni said it was the result of internal sabotage.  

“Let the Parliament end. Rahul Gandhi is going to make a major reshuffle across the country,” Beni said.  When asked about Aam Aadmi Party's performance in Delhi elections, he said he would not talk about “aam” (mango) and “amrood” (guava).

He said Manmohan Singh government had launched a number of programmes, but Congress was not able to publicise its policies properly.

While claiming that Congress would win 50 seats in UP in Lok Sabha elections, he said SP would find it difficult to win even two seats in the state.

“While the BJP's prime ministerial candidate is hoisting flag from a duplicate Red Fort, Rahul Gandhi will do the same at a real one on Independence Day,” he said.
