Congress leader Rahul Gandhi went all guns blazing on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP leaders. He said that if PM Modi sits with God, he will even explain to the God how the universe works. Talking to the Indian diaspora in San Franciso, Gandhi said that some people in India are 'absolutely convinced' they know everything. "They could sit down with God and explain things and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one such specimen," he said.
He went on to say, "I think if you sat Modi Ji down next to God, he would start explaining to God how the universe works. And God would get confused about what I have created.”
He said, “There's a group of people who understand everything. They can explain science to scientists, history to historians, warfare to the Army, and at the heart of it is mediocrity, they actually don't understand anything.”
Talking about the Bharat Jodo Yatra, he said that the government tried everything it could do to stop the Yatra, but its impact kept on increasing.
"We were finding it difficult to act politically due to misuse of agencies and therefore, we decided to start Bharat Jodo Yatra," Gandhi added.
Rahul Gandhi said that Congress believes in the values of being respective and affectionate towards people of all faiths and religion.
"That's the India you represent. You would not be here if you did not agree with these values. If you believed in anger, hatred, and arrogance, you would be sitting in a BJP meeting and I would be doing 'mann ki baat'," he told NRIs there.
The Congress leaders arrived in San Francisco for a three-city US tour during which he interacted with the Indian diaspora. He interacted with activists, academics and civil society at the University of California on May 31.
