Rahul Gandhi on Saturday dubbed poll surveys predicting that Congress could get just 100 seats in Lok Sabha polls as ‘joke’, and said opinion polls are ‘not the law’ and there is no question of Narendra Modi and BJP coming to power.
Holding a ‘Google Hangout’ with party workers, the first such interaction by any Congress leader, Gandhi also hit out at the main Opposition party over reports of an internal war within BJP over candidatures of senior leaders including Modi.
‘The talk of 100 seats is a joke and you have to understand that... the entire campaign of the Opposition is to demoralise you. If you are not demoralised, we shall smash them,’ he said.
‘If you do not have a doubt in your mind, we are getting 200 plus seats. The entire game is to demoralise the Congress workers, to create doubts in their mind,’ Gandhi said replying to a question on what would Congress do after polls if it gets about 100 seats.
