The Bharatiya Janata Party’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi yesterday said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was not able to see anything happening in the country because the “mother-son duo” were “looking after things.”
The Gujarat chief minister was reacting to Singh’s comment that there was no Modi wave in the country.
“The PM says he can’t see a Modi wave. I want to ask him, can he see the corruption in the country? His corrupt ministers? The scams from 2G to Coalgate? The fact is that the mother-son duo are looking after things... so I don’t blame the PM for not seeing the Modi wave,” the BJP leader minister said, referring to Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her son and party vice president Rahul Gandhi.
“I have no complaints against the PM. He has 10-15 days left and should enjoy the last days of his tenure,” Modi said.
After casting his ballot in the Lok Sabha polls in Guwahati, Assam, Singh on Thursday said there was no wave sweeping the country in favour of Modi.
Taking on the Gandhis, Modi said there was “competition” going on between the two on who can tell a bigger lie to the people.
