Rae Bareli: Congress chief Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday hit out at Narendra Modi saying he is the Prime Minister of India and not a 'shahenshah' (emperor). She made the comment when she was asked about Modi government's second anniversary celebrations.
She accused the BJP-led NDA government of indulging in lavish celebrations even as several regions of the country are battling drought and farmers were suffering due to poor agricultural output. A five-hour show was staged at India Gate in the national capital which was attended by politicians and celebrities as part of the 15-day "Vikas Parv" from May 26 to June 10 to highlight the Centre's achievements.
When questioned about BJP MP Kirit Somaiya's demand for Enforcement Directorate probe in the alleged links between her son-in-law Robert Vadra and an alleged arms dealer, Sonia replied, "This is a conspiracy. What does "Congress mukt Bharat" mean? They make false allegations against us every day. There should be an impartial probe. Truth will come out."
Sonia is on a two-day visit to her constituency Rae Bareli from Tuesday.
On June 1, Sonia will meet people at the Bhuemau guest house and inaugurate the Jan Suvidha Kendra at Vikas Bhawan. She will also meet the members of the District Vigilance and Monitoring Committee.
