AHMEDABAD: Rahul Gandhi sees shades of Mao Zedong in Narendra Modi. On a whistle-stop tour of Gujarat on Friday that took him to three cities, he faced a barrage of questions on the chief minister's development work.

Finally in Ahmedabad, when yet another student had the same poser for him, he apparently shot back, ''Mao also developed China but he caused destruction to the country, too.''

Fresh from his Bihar drubbing, Rahul looked undeterred and drew huge crowds wherever he went in Ahmedabad, Vadodara and Rajkot. College students packed venues and heard him speak. Like always, the press was kept away from these sessions. Nidhi, an Ahmedabad student, recalled how a young girl got into an argument with Rahul challenging him to name Congress leaders who could measure up to Modi on development work. Rahul apparently had the names ready — Manmohan Singh, P Chidambaram, Jairam Ramesh and A K Antony.

On Modi, the young Congress leader's take reportedly was he wouldn't deny the CM his share of credit for developing the state but he had ''caused some issues'' for the country, too. The girl pressed on saying she assumed Rahul was referring to the Gujarat riots. Both Muslims and Hindus had died in that violence, she insisted. The Congress leader refused to engage further and walked out saying he was getting late.

Frankly speaking after independence congress didn't do any good to india accept the green revolution,nationalization of banks & opening of indian economy in 1991 that too they did it cozz the country was in a state of economical collapse ... enough of this idiotic ideology of congress...divide & rule was & is better used by congress then the british...corruption in indian politics was first brought by congress....& still they are no.1 in it ...there best weapon is that they control all of indian media...we can easily wash this party by single vote but we dont do it & we see50% voting in indian politics...

rahul baba has lost the plot..i think bihar results had something to do with it...lost a tiny bit of respect i had for this guy after the statement...

 

[somebozo]

rahul should learn giving respect comparing greedy opportunist and terrorist against a world leaders and WW2 victor.

 

[ajtr]

rahul must also learn that his great-grand-dad was responsible for the partition and great killing that followed after that.if modi is mao then nehru+indira+sanjay+rajiv can be called hitler+ Mussolini +stalin+mao all put together.

I would liken him to Hannibal Lecter. Gandhi's congress has also dropped the ball by not proceeding with court cases against this monster so I don't know how innocent they are either.

They seem to only speak against monsters like Modi to affect their vote bank, not actually serve justice.

 

[Creder]

they are literally pissing on the graves of those dead muslims with the praises heaped on this son of a bi** and then indians have the guts to call themselves secular

And even the supposed vote bank is not listening to them. lol @ that.

If recent events like Bihar polls and Gujarat civic polls are anything to go by, even muslims are now voting for the BJP.

Rahul is an idiot, I don't think he even deserves to be a politician.
Thanks to his mother he has been patronised, otherwise he could not even utter a few words.

UP and Bihar are two large states with huge muslim population, and both have shown Congress the door.

To you and to countless other pakistanis here,whom seem to jump at every chance of "defending" muslims (indian and elsewhere); i just have one question......

What about the Kashmiri pandits?

I've never seen even a single post from a pakistani poster condemning the ethnic cleansing of pandits from kashmir.

What will you call those who masterminded it?

P.S. Is it ok to abuse elected/ dictator rulers at state/ national level? I'd have to say something about few generals from your side.

Mind your words buddy......it would be helpful if you remember that I too have a keyboard and you too have respected leaders for me to play with.

Lol...If the Congress had a teeny weeny bit of evidence against Modiji they would have proceeded to the court long long ago and would not be waiting,just spewing some 'secularism' bullshyt every now and then before elections.

Sadly you dont understand the undercurrents of the Indian politics and I dont expect you to.
