Rahul Gandhi: PM Modi doing anger politics

New Delhi: With the BJP fighting a do-or-die battle in Bihar, the Gujarat quota agitation has only added to its woes.

 

While Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar lent his support to the Patel community, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi pounced on the opportunity to hit out at Mr Modi.

 

Mr Gandhi on Thursday targeted the Prime Minister and described the agitation as a “repercussion of the politics of anger” pursued by Mr Modi. 

 

“Our Prime Minister is doing politics of anger and such politics has repercussions for the country, which you are seeing in Gujarat,” Mr Gandhi said while on his three-day visit to Jammu and Kashmir. 

 

On Wednesday, as the violence spread in Gujarat, the Bihar Chief Minister said that “someone who cannot control his own state... how come he keeps advising others?”
