Hitting back at Rahul Gandhi for saying that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not be able to face the Lok Sabha even for 15 minutes, the BJP today said such a challenge from the Congress president, who cannot speak "without consulting a slip," is "laughable."
Blaming the Oppositions' antics for virtual washout of the recent Budget session of Parliament, Tripathi told PTI, "If anybody is stopping Rahul Gandhi from speaking in Parliament, it's the Congress."
Exuding confidence that BJP would emerge victorious in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Tripathi said, "The people of Amethi and Rae Bareli are now ready to teach Congress a lesson."
