Shall fight the suit boot ki sarkaar : Rahul Gandhi

Gandhi had wished "the suit boot ki sarkaar a happy birthday" as the BJP-led Government celebrated its  one year in office at the Centre.

On Wednesday he said, "At the birthday party yesterday, only people in suits and boots were celebrating."

The Congress vice president, who has been spearheading his party's attack on the Modi Government for it being "anti-poor" and "anti-farmer", had dubbed it "suit boot ki sarkaar" referring to the  name-striped suit that PM Modi wore during the visit of US president Barack Obama to India.

"The NDA wants to destroy the law that protects the farmer. Land has become gold in India. They want to give the gold to their friends," he said.

 "They are not picking a fight with poor fishermen, tribals and farmers, they are picking a fight with the soul of the country... "Land is the farmers's mother, the sea is your mother and they want to take your mother away from you," Gandhi said.
