Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was busy building his own image
New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was busy building his own image, and noted that one man's vision cannot be a substitute for a national vision.
Gandhi's attack on the prime minister came as part of a series launched by him on Twitter, where he seeks to explain the India-China conflict at the border.
"PM is 100% focused on building his own image. India's captured institutions are all busy doing this task. One man's image is not a substitute for a national vision," he said on Twitter.
The Congress leader said he knows that the prime minister is his opponent and it is his responsibility to question him.
"My responsibility is to ask questions and put pressure on him so he does his work. His responsibility is to give the vision. It's not there. I can tell you, guaranteed, it's not there and that's why China's is in there today," he alleged.
Explaining how to respond to China, he said the first thing is you should not take on China without a vision.
"And by that I don't mean a national vision. I mean an international vision."
Gandhi said India has a border dispute with China and this issue has to be resolved. "But we have to change our approach, we have to change how we think."
