OPINION | RAHUL’S ABUSES AGAINST MODI : WILL IT BOOMERANG?

Electioneering in Rajasthan has reached a crescendo, and already there has been a flurry of personal attacks and use of abusive words by some top leaders. On Tuesday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi used the word ‘jebqatra’ (pickpocket) and ‘panauti’ (bad omen) for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Rahul Gandhi said, PM abbreviation stands for ‘Panauti Modi’. He was addressing an election rally in Rajasthan. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge described Modi as ‘maha-jhootha’ (big liar), while Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said, the abbreviation of MODI stands for ‘Master Of Drama In India’. Till now, Congress and BJP leaders were busy sniping at one another in their speeches. They were criticizing the rival party’s policies and questioning their election ‘guarantees’. The debate was on local issues and leaders had refrained from personal attacks, but on Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi launched personal attacks on Modi.
