Rahul calls Modi ‘maunsaheb’ as he questions him on ‘achche din’

There seems to be no end to Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi’s offensive against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on microblogging site Twitter. Continuing his series of questions for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) strongman in the run up to the Gujarat assembly elections, the Gandhi scion on Monday posted his 13th question.

After questioning PM Modi on issues of healthcare, women safety, GST etc, the Congress leader has now asked about the “achche din” he had promised before 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

The Gandhi scion also took a jibe at the silence of PM Modi on the issue of allegations against BJP president Amit Shah’s son Jay Shah. In an apparent retort to BJP’s reference for former prime minister Manmohan Singh as “maunmohan singh”, Rahul Gandhi referred to Modi as “maunsaheb”.

His tweet said, “you promised an answerable government, then why did you abandon the issue of Lokpal? You are always silent on GSPC, electricity-metro scam and Shah-Zada, trying to fill the pockets of your friends. The list is long, and an answer is sought from ‘maunsaheb’. For whose good days did you make the government?”

This comes after a question by Rahul Gandhi on the issue of educational institutions in the country. He had asked PM Modi if the dignity of the institutions were lowered.

The Congress VP took to Twitter, accusing 'Modiji' of not bothering about the future of the youth. "Did you lower the dignity of our educational institutions?" he asked.

He emphasised that 80 per cent of the engineers in the country is unemployed. Companies like Tata Nano does not approach these youth who are desperately seeking jobs.

Rahul further went on blaming the Prime Minister for selling out the education and examination system. He added that the schools and colleges have transformed into businesses.

On Friday, Rahul had put his 10th question brought Modi in the dock for the promise of help to migrants.

Emphasising on the problems faced by the tribals, he said that their land has been taken away from them, they do not have any claim over the jungles. He also added that they are deprived of even the basic facilities like schools and hospitals.

Modi had recently said that the Gujarat government initiated a Vanbandhu Kalyan Yojana scheme dedicated to tribal people which has a total budget spent of Rs 65,700 crore. He had claimed that the tribals support the BJP as they have been able to bring a qualitative change in their life. 

Rahul has been questioning the Prime Minister on several issues ranging from farmer woes to woman safety to price rise.
