Lok Sabha Elections: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his “God has sent me” remark and said that it is strange that this 'person who was sent by God' only works for 22 people. The Congress leader also said that the Prime Minister does everything as per Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani's wishes, and he does nothing for the poor people of the country. 


While speaking at an election rally in the national capital, Rahul Gandhi said, "It is strange that this 'person who was sent by God' only works for 22 people. PM Modi does everything as per Ambani and Adani's wishes. But when poor people demand roads, hospitals, and education, Narendra Modi does nothing,” the Congress leader said. 






This comes after PM Modi during a recent interview with News18 said that when he reflected on all his experiences he was convinced that God had sent him.


“When my mother was alive, I used to believe that I was born biologically. After she passed away, upon reflecting on all my experiences, I was convinced that God has sent me. This energy could not be from my biological body, but was bestowed upon me by God...whenever I do anything, I believe god is guiding me," PM Modi said during the interview.


PM Modi’s comments came during his visit to Varanasi on May 14, where he is contesting the Lok Sabha election in a bid to bag the constituency for the third straight time. Thursday is the last day of campaigning in the national capital. Delhi is set to go to polls on May 25 and the results will be announced on June 4.
