Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a dig at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra, saying those who have been thrown out of power are taking out foot march to get back to power. Addressing a gathering in Surendranagar town of poll-bound Gujarat, Modi also said instead of talking about development during elections, the opposition Congress is saying it will show him his “aukat” (status).

“Now, the Congress does not talk about development during elections. Instead, Congress leaders are saying they will show Modi his aukat. Just look at their arrogance. They, indeed, belong to a royal family, while I am merely a servant having no aukat,” he said. “In the past, the Congress had used words like ‘neech aadmi’, ‘maut ka saudagar’ and ‘naali ka keeda’ for me. I urge you to talk about development instead of playing this game of ‘aukat’,” the PM said, adding that he swallows such insults because his focus is to make India a developed nation.

Elections to the 182-member Gujarat Assembly will be held in two phases on December 1 and 5. Modi said people who were dethroned long back were taking out yatra ( Rahul Gandhi Bharat Bharat Jodo Yatra) to get back the power. “Some people are doing foot march to get back to power. They are also taking along those who had stalled the Narmada project for 40 years through litigation and kept Gujarat thirsty for 40 years. In this election, the people of Gujarat will punish those who are doing this padyatra.
