Rahul Gandhi addresses rally in Kolkata, slams PM Modi, CM Mamata Banerjee

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi came down heavily on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of trying to deflect attention away from the NDA government’s “unfulfilled promises”, and also targeted West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. He also slammed NDA govt over land bill as he referred to agrarian and tribal agitations in Nandigram, Bhatta Parsaul and Niyamgri. “When our (UPA) government was there, our PM wanted to go to Bangladesh. We spoke to her and requested Mamata Banerjee to go with us. She said no, ‘ekla chalo re’ (I will go alone). Now, Modiji is there, so no ‘ekla chalo re’. We will go together. Why is this happening? What is the friendship about? You must be knowing the reason,” said Rahul Gandhi.
