Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked Rahul Gandhi for challenging his Hindu credentials and questioned whether the Congress president wanted to seek votes in Rajasthan over this issue rather than the basic issues like electricity, water and roads. PM’s comment came two days after Gandhi said that the former doesn’t understand the foundation of Hinduism and asked ‘what kind of a Hindu he is?’
Gandhi has made the remarks in Udaipur as part of campaigning for the upcoming Assembly polls. Modi said that even the saints have never claimed that they know everything about Hinduism and Hindutva. This is such a mammoth subject that it is not possible for any human to acquire. ‘I can never claim to be possessing the knowledge, only the ‘naamdar’ do it’ the PM said in reference to Gandhi, whom he calls by that name.
Further, he added that ‘during the elections, Gandhi is saying that Modi has no knowledge (about Hinduism). Whether Modi has knowledge or not, will votes be cast in Rajasthan on this issue? Does Rajasthan want voting on electricity, water and roads or whether Modi has knowledge about Hinduism?’ Modi has also accused the Congress of spreading lies.
