Rahul Gandhi's
gaffes should be telecast on TV instead of comedian Kapil Sharma's
show, Narendra Modi, the BJP's prime ministerial candidate, said on
Sunday, mocking the Congress vice-president's elections speeches, which,
he said, were full of gaffes.
"I feel the TV serial of
Kapil Sharma [Comedy Nights With Kapil] will shut down in a few days. TV
people should gather these Rahul Gandhi [YouTube] videos and show them
and the entire tiredness of the elections will go away. You won't have
to do anything [else] for entertainment," Modi said at a rally in
support of party candidate Uma Bharti in Jhansi in UP.
Modi, the Gujarat Chief Minister, recalled Rahul Gandhi's three speeches, saying they had glaring gaffes.
"This
morning I saw my friend, Rahul Gandhi's statement, and I laughed so
much that my stomach hurt. What are they saying? Will such people run
the Congress, leave the nation aside?" Modi said.
"He [Rahul
Gandhi] was in Gujarat yesterday and these days, mother-son have
developed a lot of love for Gujarat. They praise Gujarat day and night.
Mother speaks somewhere, son speaks somewhere else. Mother speaks one
lie and son speaks two lies," he said.
"He [Rahul Gandhi] said:
'Tell me Modi-ji, there is no lokayukta in Gujarat and the day lokayukta
comes, this chowkidar [security guard] will go to jail'," Modi said,
referring to the Congress vice-president's speech in Bhavnagar on
Saturday.
Rahul
bhaiya, slow down. Why are you spreading such lies? I will tell you.
Rahul bhaiya, those who are writing your speeches, they are bent on
destroying you, it seems. And your mother's adviser, with whom you do
not get along, may be he is providing you with such false speeches,"
Modi said, amid cheering from the crowd.
"You should know.
There is a lokayukta is Gujarat. Not only this, the same lokayukta has
given a probe report which was tabled in the last Assembly session. In
that report, a minister at the Centre, whose father was once the chief
minister of Gujarat and who stole from the forests, ate up forest wood,
the current lokayukta has held that Mr Amarsinh Chaudhary guilty.
Amarsinh-ji has passed away and that is why we did not want to do
politics and that is why we were silent. We never mentioned it. We
respect departed souls. And you lie like this?" he said.
Referring
to another Rahul Gandhi speech, Modi said: "Gujarat's population is six
crore, but Rahul baba said there are 27,000 crore jobs lying vacant in
Gujarat! ... You have exceeded world's population!"
"The other
thing he said, I can't repeat. Okay, I will tell half of it. It's on
YouTube. I have said that there has been a White Revolution in Gujarat
and the state now provides milk to other states. On this, he [Rahul
Gandhi] said something on which I laughed as well as felt ashamed. Can
there be leaders like this?" Modi said.
"He said a third thing.
This is also on YouTube. He is the Congress' PM candidate and look at
his intelligence: He said in Gujarat, two in one children are
malnourished. Did you understand?" Modi said.
"I don't know what
kind of fate I have that I have to face such people. If there was
someone wise, we could have had a conversation," he said.
