Rahul-Sonia competing in telling lies: Modi

#Rahul Gandhi-Sonia Gandhi competing in telling lies: Narendra Modi

Ahmedabad, Apr 27 (IBNS): Hitting back at Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi for questioning his Gujarat model, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Saturday said the mother-son duo competes against each other in telling lies.

"If the mother says one lie the son says two and then the mother says three. There is a competition,” Modi said while addressing a rally in Gujarat.

Taking a dig at Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi, Modi said, "Rahul ji, you are being kept in the dark and that is why either you are telling lies or being told to tell lies."

Earlier, Sonia Gandhi at an election rally in Punjab said "God save India from the Gujarat model of development."

"God save the country from this sort of model," said Sonia Gandhi. "It has many problems," she said.

Hitting back, Modi also disproved the Congress Vice President’s statement of very little women participation in the state – which he had made during his address in Amreli– by citing how innumerable representations for 50 percent women reservation in local bodies had been made in the Vidhan Sabha, but the Governor (who belongs to the Congress) had never approved it.
