Slamming Prime Minister Modi for his comments that there was no development for 60 years in the country, Rahul said the statement is an insult of the previous generation. Rahul charged, “This is an insult of the work done by your parents, farmers, women, youth and others of the previous generation.” He also promised that the Congress government, if voted back to power, will double its work for the development of Karnataka.
