BJP targets Rahul for attack on Modi

New Delhi: BJP today targeted Rahul Gandhi for accusing Narendra Modi of favouring few industrialists and raising questions over development model of Gujarat and said the “insulated” Congress Vice President has poor knowledge of ground

Hitting out at Rahul for saying that there was no Lokayukta and RTI Commissioners in Gujarat, the BJP leader said, “When he alleged that Lokayukta is not functional in Gujarat and there is no Lokayukta, he forgot that the name of Lokayukta in Gujarat is Justice Buch.”

She said he has given his reports to the government and in his first report tabled in the Gujarat Assembly, he has indicted former Chief Minister Amarsinh Choudhary, who belongs to the Congress in a forest scam.

On Rahul's claims that Haryana model of development is better than the Gujarat model, she said, “I can only say that he should know that various indicators and data collected by central government, Planning Commission etc show that Gujarat has achieved far more in the last decade than Congress-ruled states where the centre has failed miserably.”
