Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of mocking the tragedy of Uttarakhand earthquake and insulting the freedom struggle, but not answering Opposition’s questions on demonetisation.
The Congress vice president also took a dig at Modi over his surgery remarks on economy, saying ‘a quack endangers life’.
‘The prime minister mocks the tragedy of Uttarakhand and insults the freedom struggle but has no answers to the Opposition’s questions,’ he tweeted.
Gandhi said this after the prime minister took a jibe at him in Parliament, saying ‘the earthquake has finally occurred’ while referring to Monday night’s tremors in Uttarakhand.
The Congress vice president had in December last said he possessed certain material against the prime minister, and if he spoke in Parliament, there would be an ‘earthquake’.
Gandhi’s quackery endangers life remarks came after the PM, while defending demonetisation in his speech in the Lok Sabha said, “When can you have an operation? When the body is healthy. The economy was doing well and thus our decision was taken at the right time.”
