Prime Minister Narendra Modi on on July 7 launched a blistering attack on Congress, describing it as a “bail gaadi”, in an apparent reference to several of its leaders being granted bail by courts in various cases, and said the Opposition was raising doubts about the Army and indulging in politics even on the issues of national security. Addressing a public rally organised in Jaipur for interacting with the beneficiaries of the government’s flagship schemes, Mr. Modi said veteran Congress leaders and former Ministers were out on bail. “This is the result of the way the Congress governments have functioned in the past. They had no regard for public sentiments and no vision for development,” he said.
