Observing that it is a clash between two philosophies, the Congress vice president said while his party's philosophy asks people to be fearless, BJP's is to create "fear" and "scare" the people.
"This is a fight between two philosophies. This is not a new fight. This fight is thousands of years old. The Congress party's philosophy says do not fear. The other philosophy says instill fear and scare them.
He said while the Congress party told labourers and farmers to be fearless come what may, they will be guaranteed 100 days employment and none will be able to take away their land without paying the market price for it, Narendra Modi "snatched" away their money and land.
Gandhi said in states like Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh, where Adivasis have stood up for their land, water and forest rights, they have been shot down.
He said Congress party has always stood for dispelling the fear and asserted that India is strong and the country and its people do not to fear anything in this world.
"The basis of their politics, their structure, is to change fear into anger. This is not happening for the last two or two-and-a-half years but this has been going on for thousands of years. And they (BJP and RSS) are the ones doing it. This ideology is doing it","he said.
Taking a apparent dig at Modi, Gandhi satirised a song from movie Namak Halaal, saying "Aapka toh lagta hai bas yahi sapna, ram ram japna garibo kaa maal apna (It seems your only dream is to take away money from poor while chanting the name of Ram)".
Hitting out at Modi, he said the Prime Minister "does not want to respond" to the charge of taking kickbacks from corporate groups.
The Congress vice president also directed his party leaders and workers to go to every nook and corner of the country and apprise the people of how the "RSS and BJP are damaging the country", spreading "hatred and fear" through initiatives like demonetisation.
