Within 24-hours of Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi coming out with the ‘proof’ of PM Modi allegedly accepting kickbacks from business groups like Sahara and Aditya Birla, Prime Minister responded from his Lok Sabha constituency Varanasi.

PM Modi mimicked Rahul and mocked him for ‘learning the art of speech fairly recently’. Without naming the Congress Vice President, Modi also said that he is very happy since Rahul has started speaking.

Hours later, Rahul Gandhi landed a counter punch at Prime Minister Narendra Modi from a rally in Bahraich. Rahul responded to Modi’s mocking exercise quoting the poetry of Mirza Ghalib. He also dared PM Modi to counter the allegations made against him.
