Indian Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Saturday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, suggesting that he was beginning to show signs of memory loss, drawing a comparison to US President Joe Biden, who frequently makes headlines for his verbal gaffes and missteps.
Addressing a rally in Maharashtra’s Amravati, the Raebareli MP recalled an incident where Biden, 81, had mistakenly introduced Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as Russian President Vladimir Putin at an event.
“My sister told me that she had heard Modi Ji’s speech. And in that speech, whatever we say, Modi Ji is saying the same thing these days. I don’t know. Maybe he has lost his memory. The former President of America used to forget and he had to be reminded from behind. The President of Ukraine came and the President of America said that Russian President Putin had come. He had lost his memory. Similarly, our Prime Minister is losing his memory,” said Rahul Gandhi, who is also the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha.
He asserted that Modi, 74, had been saying in his speeches that the Congress was attacking the Constitution.
“For the past one year, I have been saying that the BJP has been attacking the Constitution in my speeches. But, PM Modi is saying that Congress is attacking the Constitution. He came to know that people were getting angry, and he is now saying that I am attacking the Constitution,” he said.
