Priyanka Gandhi (L) and Amit Shah

Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi, while taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, compared him to the Mahabharata character Duryodhana. She added Duryodhana had lots of ego and it was the prime reason for his downfall. Modi too has arrogance so his downfall in the Lok Sabha Election is sure.

Priyanka while addressing an election rally in Haryana’s Ambala, on Tuesday, said, “Desh ne ahankaar ko kabhi maaf nahi kiya, aisa ahankaar Duryodhan mein bhi tha, jab Bhagwan Krishna unhe samjhane gaye to unko bhi Duryodhan ne bandhak banane ki koshish ki. Dinkar ji ki panktiyan hain,’Jab naash manuj par chaata hai, pehle vivek mar jata hai (The country has never forgiven arrogance. Duryodhana had similar arrogance. When Lord Krishna tried to make him understand, he instead tried to capture him. Renowned poet Dinkar has written, ‘When someone is about to be destroyed, their wisdom ends first’.”

“The BJP leaders never in their poll campaign say whether they fulfilled their promises or not. They seek vote in the name of martyrs or the martyr (Rajiv Gandhi) of my family,” she said.

 While reacting over Priyanka Gandhi, Amit Shah said, “Priyanka ji, this is democracy, nobody becomes Duryodhana just because you called them so. We will find out on May 23 who is Duryodhana and who is Arjuna.”
