This is not Gujarat Model, but 'toffee' model: Rahul Gandhi mocks Narendra Modi's development agenda

Addressing a rally in Latur, Maharashtra, today, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi, mocked Gujarat's development model calling it a "toffee model".

"You get a toffee at Re 1, but Modi gave away 44000 acre land at Rs 1 per metre," Rahul accused. "This is not Gujarat Model, this is toffee model," he proclaimed.
