Rahul tears into Modi's claim on fighting terrorism

While the Congress, he said, thought about all classes of people, for the BJP “the nation belongs to one religion, caste or two-three businessmen.”

Electrification of villages by the UPA government was two times more than during NDA rule, he said. Reeling out comparative statistics about NDA and UPA regimes, he said that the UPA government constructed almost three times more roads than NDA.

The Congress leader also criticized Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for failing to utilize funds sent by the Centre for the welfare of poor.

Giving a message of Congress-RJD unity, Gopalganj RJD district president Reyazul Haque was present on the dais with Gandhi.
