New Delhi: BJP leader Smriti Irani on Tuesday said attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi was a way of political sustenance for Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi.
“For his own political sustenance, Rahul has to attack the Prime Minister. This is about his political future,” Irani told CNN News18.
“Modi has been a target of the opposition not just now but from his days as the Gujarat Chief Minister. He is used to such attacks but that has never deterred him from any issue or work.
“But for Rahul, he has neither any issue nor any work,” said Irani, who had lost the 2014 Lok Sabha polls to Gandhi from Amethi in Uttar Pradesh.
Continuing her attack on Gandhi, the Union minister accused him of neglecting Amethi.
“Being an MP for so long, what has he done for Amethi. He has been holding rallies in UP but did he venture to Amethi,” she asked. (IANS)
