PM seeks to deflate BJP's projection of Modi as strong leader

Gandhi told partymen not to be afraid of speaking about their ideals. “We must not be afraid to speak against those, who offer only a narrow and destructive alternative,” she said.

The Congress chief rued that “the opposition spent much time and energy in making vituperative and completely baseless personal attacks on all of us including the Prime Minister.”

BJP has been repeatedly targeting the Prime Minister, accusing him of providing “weak leadership” to the country.
