Poster war has started in Amethi and adjoining Rae Bareli between the BJP and the Congress workers.
While in Amethi, Congress workers pasted posters of ' Go back Modi' after they claimed that the officials and BJP cadre cleaned the walls near the public meeting place carrying slogans hailing local MP and Congress chief Rahul Gandhi as ‘future PM’.
In the adjoining Rae Bareli — the Lok Sabha constituency of UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi — hoardings carrying the slogan ‘toot jayega danka, phuss ho jayegi Priyanka (the hype won’t last as Priyanka Gandhi’s bubble would burst)’ have come up.
