Prime Minister Narendra’s remarks on verbal abuse were addressed by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday. She advised him to take such attacks in stride in public life and counseled him to learn from her brother Rahul Gandhi, who “is ready to take a bullet for the sake of the country,” in her response.
At a public meeting here in Bagalkote district, Vadra, commenting on the PM’s statement, said: “At least the 91 abuses are fitting on one page; if you look at the abuses by them to my family, and if we start making a list, we will publish books after books about it”.
“It is strange what I’m seeing from the past two-three days. I have seen many Prime Ministers, but Indira ji took bullets for this country. I have seen Rajiv Gandhi; he sacrificed his life for this country. I have seen P V Narsimha Rao and Manmohan Singh working hard for this country,” she said.
“But Narendra Modi is the first Prime Minister I have seen who comes before you and cries that he is being abused. Instead of listening to your grief, he is coming here and telling you his problems.” Mocking PM Modi, she said someone in his office had made a list not about the problems of the people but about who had abused the Prime Minister many times.
“Have courage, Modi ji. Learn from my brother, Rahul Gandhi. My brother says he is ready to take a bullet for the sake of this country, not just abuse. My brother says he will stand for truth, whether you abuse, shoot a bullet, or stab with a knife,” Vadra said
