Giving reference of PM Modi's Andaloan Jeevi jibe during his Rajya Sabha speech, Rahul Gandhi in a Twitter post said, "Crony-Jeevi Hai Jo Desh Bech Raha Hai Vo."
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="hi" dir="ltr">Crony-जीवी है जो<br>देश बेच रहा है वो।<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/PSU_PSB_Sale?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel='nofollow'>#PSU_PSB_Sale</a></p>— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) <a href="https://twitter.com/RahulGandhi/status/1359402047213166599?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel='nofollow'>February 10, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
His remarks came two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his speech in the parliament on Monday said a new community ‘Andolan jeevi’ (one who thrives on protests) has come up in the country, adding they can be spotted everywhere and are parasites for India.
“We are well aware of terms like ‘buddhi jeevi’ and shram jeevi’ but I am seeing from some time that a new community ‘Andolan jeevi’ has come up in the country. This community can be spotted wherever there is a protest, be it the agitation by lawyers, students or labourers. They can sometimes be seen at the forefront and sometimes behind,” Prime Minister Modi told the Rajya Sabha.
The PM in his speech slammed the mushrooming of a new crop of 'andolan jeevi' -- who he said only live for protests and look for ways to start a new one.
