"What is required is a coherent strategy, having a clear vision on what one wants to do. What is lacking is that the Prime Minister does not have that clear vision.
"The Prime Minister moves, jumps from one position to another and he thinks that international diplomacy can be done on the basis of his whims and fancies. He thinks like going to Pakistan one day, and he gets up and goes to Pakistan. This is not how you run the foreign policy," Gandhi told reporters.
A woman asked Rahul at the 'khat sabha' held in Poddar Inter College in Sitapur about his promise of "karz maaf aur bijli half" (loan waiver and half power rates) alleging the region was not even getting four hours of power supply, to which he said Congress was neither in power at the Centre or in UP.
However, his reply apparently failed to satisfy the woman.
Meanwhile, Rahul visited Rabbani Madarsa and held a road show at Amar Talkies crossing, where he garlanded a statue of late prime minister Indira Gandhi.
He later spoke to anganwadi workers and assured them that he would raise their demand regarding wage hike in Lok Sabha.
