Bengaluru, May 10: Why does Prime Minister Narendra Modi often resorts to personal attack against Congress supremo Rahul Gandhi and his mother Sonia Gandhi?
When media persons in Bengaluru posed this question to Rahul Gandhi, he gave a simple and straight forward answer: “Modi has anger inside him and he personally attacks me and my mother, because he sees a threat from me."
On the last day of Karnataka election campaign, Rahul Gandhi held a press conference before he leaves for Hubballi for concluding his campaigns in the state. The press conference was attended by chief minister Siddaramaiah, KPCC President G Parameshwara, Mallikarjun Kharge, K C Venugopal, D K Shivakumar and Randeep Surjewala.
"Mr Modi has got anger inside of him. He is angry with everybody, not only me. I am a lightning rod for anger, I attract anger. But that is his problem. It is not my problem," Rahul told the reporters.
"My mother has Italian origin and has lived larger part of her life in India. She is more Indian than many Indian people I have met. My mother sacrificed for this country. If PM Modi likes to abuse her, he may do so if it pleases him," said Rahul when asked about PM Modi’s penchant for mocking Sonia.
For the question about the Modi's statement on Congress' rigging the polls, Rahul said: "the man talks what he thinks in his mind."
"Since 15 years, I've been visiting temples, mosques, gurudwaras, every religious institution I come across. BJP doesn't like this. I don't think they understand the meaning of the term Hindu. It's a perspective. It's something which lives with you throughout," Rahul responded to a question on his recent visits to religious places for years.
Rahul also said the party manifesto is people's voice and added he is confident of winning the election.
"I have been travelling around Karnataka for a few months now, we all stood together and fought the campaign on fundamental issues. We've prepared manifesto which is truly the voice of the people. The opposition has restricted itself to making personal remarks. I am confident of winning the elections," Rahul said.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
