Never saw 'a more coward, weak' PM than Modi: Priyanka

Pratapgarh (UP): Stepping up attack on Narendra Modi, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Thursday said that she has never seen "a more coward and weak" prime minister than him.

"Insey bada kayar, insey kamjor Pradhan Mantri main jeevan me nahi dekha, (I haven't seen a more coward and weaker PM than him in my life)", she said at an election meeting here, a day after Modi fired yet another salvo targeting her father and former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi accusing him of using warship INS Viraat as a "personal taxi" for a family holiday.

The Congress leader claimed that Modi has failed to answer people's questions on "unfulfilled" promises about providing two crore jobs and doubling the income of farmers. "The power of politics does not come from big campaigns and TV shows. People are the biggest in democracy. One should have power to listen and redress people's problems. He should have the power to listen to the opposition. Leave aside listening to you, this PM does know how to reply to you," she said.

"You have been cheated. He (PM) had promised to check corruption but now who has been exposed as corrupt...He hides the reality with his campaigns.

If Modiji comes to you, then you should tell him that in Amethi without power connection a lady showed Rs 35,000 electricity bill, another person showed a bill for Rs 50,000.
