 "Cong unable to digest India's growing stature: Naqvi on Rahul's US remarks")
Senior BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Wednesday attacked Rahul Gandhi for his remarks during his recent US visit, alleging that the Congress is "unable to digest" democracy, development and growing stature of the country.
