Rahul Gandhi calls PM leader of opposition

Mahad (Maharashtra): Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday committed a faux pas when he apparently referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as “opposition leader”.

“An opposition leader says nothing happened in the last 60 years. Their thinking is that only one man can take the country forward. This thinking raises a question mark on Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Nehru. It not only raises a question mark on them (about what they did for the country), but also you (the people) and your forefathers,” Mr Gandhi said addressing his maiden rally for Maharashtra polls.

“It is your sweat and blood that has brought the country where it is today,” he said.
