Ahead of Lok Sabha elections, Congress president Rahul Gandhi today held a rally at Valsad, Gujarat. While speaking at the Jan Aakrosh Rally in Gujarat, Gandhi criticized the BJP-led government at the Centre for insulting the tribals, farmers and favoring a few industrialists. Gandhi has been on the offensive, targeting the BJP over what he says is a scam in the Rafale deal and accusing the ruling government of destroying the credibility of institutions.

Here are highlights of Rahul speech:

The slogan ''chowkidar chor hai'' (the sentry is the thief) is also famous in France. Even former the former French president says ''Chowkidar chor hai".

The entire nation is saying "chowkidar chor hai" but PM Modi is silent. I asked him the price of Rafale jets in the new agreement, why HAL was sidelined and why Ambani was given the deal. He could not look me in the eye and answer these questions. Whenever Gujarat will call me, ask me to be ready to work for the state, says Rahul Gandhi.

"PM Narendra Modi and Arun Jaitley said that medium and small businessmen are thieves. They call Anil Ambani, Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi businessmen," Rahul Gandhi said.
