In the run up to the Lok Sabha polls, the political rhetoric has again taken a toll and PM Narendra Modi in a blog, has criticised Congress over ‘dynasty’ and asked the voters to choose ‘honesty,’ to which Priyanka Gandhi has retorted.

In a blog titled “Institutional respect and Institutional contempt - two contrasting approaches,” PM Modi wrote, “Sadly, Congress does not believe in internal democracy. If a leader dares to dream to head that party, he or she is shunted out of the Congress.”


PM Modi added that “The sense of entitlement can be seen in their conduct towards routine legal processes. At present, their top leadership is on bail vis-a-vis a major scam. When the authorities seek to question them on their dealings, they do not even bother to reply.”

While again attacking the Gandhi family, PM Modi invoked former PM Indira Gandhi and said, “It was Mrs. Indira Gandhi who called for a "committed judiciary", which seeks to make the courts more loyal to a family than to the Constitution.”

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is on a political tour in the UP East, has retorted over the dynasty remark by PM Modi and said that ‘we are not scared.’

Priyanka said, “BJP has systematically attacked every institution in last 5 years including the media. PM should stop thinking people are fools and understand that they see through this.”
