Sushma hits out at Priyanka over 'Duryodhana' jibe


New Delhi, May 8 (IANS): Union Minister Sushma Swaraj on Tuesday attacked Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi for accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of arrogance, saying her brother Rahul Gandhi had displayed his "arrogance" by going against his party-led government.

Sushma Swaraj, in a tweet, said Priyanka Gandhi, who accused Modi of arrogance and had likened him to Kaurava king Duryodhana at an election meeting in Haryana, needs to be reminded of the actions of her brother.

"Priyankaji, You talked of arrogance today. I am reminding you that arrogance had crossed its limits when Rahul Gandhi had insulted Prime Minister Manmohan Singh (of his party) and tore the ordinance approved by the President. Who is making sarcastic remarks?"

In another tweet, Sushma Swaraj slammed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over her remarks against Modi.

Addressing a rally, Banerjee said on Tuesday that Modi should get a tight slap of democracy over his allegations against her government. She had earlier said the she did not consider him Prime Minister after a war of words concerning his telephonic conversation concerning super cyclone Fani.

    So sad and disgusting.
    Our legislators are full-time engaged into mudslidging instead of working towards honouring the promises made to people in their election menifesto.
    Ignorant people are enjoying and joining the stupid leaders for they are good in mudslidging.
    Are we not supposed to know that elected representatives are paid by us and supposed to work instead?

    We are brainless with brains that is why these politicians has been taking us for ride for decades now and they are enjoying life with our hard earned money. What Sir Winston Churchill said during the independence of our country has literally come true with every word he spoke. Look at the situation now the entire army of politicians is defending one man who has been taking people for joy ride with unfulfilled tall promises and yet keeps on promising unimaginable.

    My concerned question is; Today BJP really exists. Isn't it the entire workers are just hysterically shouting Modi, Modi Modi and evolving around Modi and Amit Shah. Where is BJP Party name.
    What DK RSS stalwart Mr. Kalladka has expressed the concern about BJP party, party cadres evolving under Modiji is wrong. This may lead to dictatorship. Really Democracy is under threat.

    Sir, What you are saying is true to some extent but the point is " if there are so called honest people in the party who wants to stick to their conscience and principles of freedom, equality etc., then why these guys do not come out in open and dump these destructive duo". Are these guys are indispensable on this planet...!!!
