A day after hinting that she is not averse to contesting against Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha polls, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra attacked him for ignoring his own Varanasi constituency.

On Thursday night, reacting to a suggestion from a party worker that she should fight the elections from her mother Sonia Gandhi's Rae Bareli constituency, Priyanka Gandhi had quipped, Shouldn't I fight from Varanasi?
Claiming Modi did not care about Varanasi, she said, "I was told that in the past five years he has not visited even a single village in his own constituency though he has been travelling all over the country and abroad."
