Rahul Gandhi challenges Narendra Modi to debate, calls PM a ‘darpok’
Rahul Gandhi.
Congress president Rahul Gandhi once again challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to a 10-minute debate on issues such as the economy, Rafale deal and national security while addressing the All India Congress Committee’s minorities’ cell its annual convention – “Mera Samvidhaan Mera Swabhiman” – where he mounted a double-barrelled attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the RSS, on Thursday.
While addressing the gathering at New Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, he said, “Constitution is the battlefield on which this election is being fought. RSS wants to run the country from Nagpur. Narendra Modi is the face, Mohan Bhagwat is the remote control”, and amid shouts of ‘chowkidar hi chor hai’ from the crowd, he added, “I know his (Modi) character after fighting him for five years. He is a ‘darpok (coward)’. When someone stands up to him, he runs away.”

The Congress chief, in his speech in Hindi, said, “It used to be said 5 years ago that he will rule for the next 15 years. Congress has torn to shreds his reputation and credibility. He now knows you can’t rule India by dividing people.”
