โ€œPM Modi Is Trying To Replicate Gujarat Model Across Indiaโ€: Rahul Gandhi In Poll Bound-Gujarat

Gandhinagar: Rahul Gandhi, a Congress politician, claimed on Tuesday that his party would form the next government in Gujarat following the Assembly election, criticizing the Narendra Modi-led BJP administration at the Centre for โ€œbuilding one India for the rich and one for the poor.โ€

Gandhi claimed that Prime Minister Modi was following the Gujarat model across the country. โ€œAs Prime Minister, Modi is doing throughout the country what he did as Gujaratโ€™s chief minister: establishing two Indias, one for the rich and one for the poor.โ€ Itโ€™s known as the Gujarat model.โ€

He said it was only in Gujarat where permission was required to protest. โ€œJignesh Mevani was jailed for three months for the same. I would like to say that even if heโ€™s jailed for 10 years, it wonโ€™t affect him,โ€ Gandhi said.

At a โ€œadivasi satyagrah rallyโ€ in tribal-dominated Dahod district to kick off the Congressโ€™ campaign for the Gujarat Assembly election this year, Gandhi said the countryโ€™s resources were being taken away to a few wealthy individuals.

โ€œToday, two Indias are being created, one India of the rich, a few select people, billionaires and bureaucrats who have power and money. The second India is of the common people,โ€ he said.

He said the Congress did not want two Indias. โ€œIn the BJP model, resources of people like water, forest and land which belong to tribals and other poor people, are being given to a few,โ€ he said.
