Let us look back at the five questions or allegations put forward by Rahul Gandhi that PM Narendra Modi answered.
It was a day that would be hard to forget. 16th Lok Sabha witnessed its most intense showdown on Friday as both the Treasury benches and Opposition got involved in a war of words, banters and fiery rhetoric.
Congress president Rahul Gandhi launched a sharp attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his speech in the parliament. From posting a questionnaire for the PM to the unprecedented hug and wink, Gandhi was all confident that he had done it all. But then came the turn of PM Modi, who paid Congress President back on his own coin.
Let us look back at the five questions put forward by Rahul Gandhi that PM Narendra Modi answered:
1. 'Jumla' strike
What Rahul Gandhi said -
The farmers, youngsters, Dalits and Tribals are victims of Jumla strike. Pradhanmantri ji sawal ka matlab hona chahiye, ye sawal pura Hindusthan puch raha hai (The Prime Minister should answer the question to India).
What PM Modi replied -
You called the surgical strike a Jumla Strike. I appeal to the Congress to stop calling the Surgical Strikes as Jumla Strikes. They can continue abusing me, my poverty, my background but please stop mocking the armed forces. Doubting our soldiers and the surgical strike is an insult to the country.
2. Rafale deal
What Rahul Gandhi said -
Price of Rafale increased after PM Modi went to France with some of his friends. No secrecy pact regarding Defence deal between India and France, confirmed Emmanuel Macron. Union Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and PM Modi should clarify to nation about the Rafale Deal. Defence Minister clearly spoke untruth, lied to the nation. By having no agenda, PM Modi followed Chinese agenda in Wuhan. PM Modi was in 'jhula' with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Gujarat, and later 1000 Chinese soldiers entered in Doklam.
What PM Modi replied -
Due to one careless allegation in the House on Rafale, both nations had to release statements. One of the leaders spoke about Doklam. The same leader, who believed the Chinese Ambassador over our forces. What have we come to? Everything does not merit a childish conduct
3. Eye to Eye remark
What Rahul Gandhi said-
He (PM Modi) can't look into my eyes, he is nervous.
What PM Modi said -
Who am I to put my eyes into yours. Son of a poor mother, born in a backward caste, coming from a village. You are a 'naamdaar' (known by name) and I am 'kaamdar' (known by work). I cannot dare see you eye-to-eye (Aapki aankhon mein aankhein daal ke hum nahi bol sakte, aap naamdar hain aur ham kaamdar hain). And history is the witness that Subhas Chandra Bose tried to look into the eyes, what was done to him. History is a witness to how one family treated Sardar Patel, Loknayak JP, Morarjibhai Desai, Charan Singh Ji, Chandra Shekhar Ji, Pranab Da, Deve Gowda Ji & Sharad Pawar Ji and what happened to them. And how people who dare to look into their eyes are insulted, how they are thrown out. And we are 'kaamdar', how can we look into the eyes of 'naamdaar'.
4. The 'chowkidar' reference
What Rahul Gandhi said -
PM Modi said he is the chowkidar (watchman) of the country. In truth, there are a few rich businessmen who are in collusion with PM Modi, and he works only for them, not for the country's poor.
What PM Modi said -
You have said I am not chowkidar (watchman). You're right. I am the bhaagidar (collaborator) of the country's poor and stand with them to help them rise.
5. Employment
What Rahul Gandhi said -
Citing Labour Bureau Record, the Congress chief said: In 2016-17, Only 4 lakh people got job. Unemployment highest in 60 years. China gives job to 50,000 youth in 1 day, India gives to 400.
What PM Modi said -
Our Government has opened bank accounts for the poor. Earlier, the doors of the banks never opened for the poor. The issue of non-performing assets (NPA) was the outcome of the "loot" of banks during the UPA rule when a chosen few were given loans with merely a telephone call. Banks had given away loans of Rs 18 lakh crore in 60 years but it rose to Rs 52 lakh crore during the UPA's rule between 2009-14. India had not only strengthed its economy but also played a role in bolstering the global economy and has become sixth largest economy. Nearly one crore people have got employment in 2017-18.
Citing Employment Provident Fund figures, PM Modi also said that 50 lakh people have got job in the formal sector in nine months.He said the transport business alone has created 20 lakh jobs in the informal sector.
