Modi retort to Priyanka, says Congress indulging in 'neech' politics

Continuing his attack on Priyanka Gandhi Vadra over her 'neech' politics remark, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said the Congress Party is indulging in 'neech' politics by looting through several scams and not distributing food grain stocks to the poor.

"What is neech politics? Food grains are rotting and despite the Supreme Court's order to distribute it to the poor, the Centre is not doing so. They are instead selling this food grain to liquor companies. This is neech politics," Modi said while addressing a rally here.

He also raised the Commonwealth Games scam issue, and said, "The CWG was a very good opportunity to showcase our might in front of the world. But, they looted even toilet paper. Is looting not 'neech' politics?"

He also said that the Congress is panic stricken due to their fear of losing the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.

He asserted that it is the agenda of the Congress Party to stop Modi, while his agenda is to provide jobs to youth and development of tribal people.

Targeting the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Bahujan Samajwadi Party (BSP), Modi said, "They play their game from behind the curtain. They all eat from the same plate. They do a fake drama, but are actually friends in Delhi."

He reiterated that the Congress Party will not be able to open its account in several states.

"It will be for the first time in history, that the Congress will not be able to open its account. Today, they are even struggling to save Amethi. Those who used to consider India being in its pockets, today the public has compelled them to roam tiredly in Amethi. This is the power of the public," he said.
