He said that PM Modi also has the remote control, but he presses it ‘secretly’. Rahul Gandhi said- We press the remote control button in the open. But BJP suppresses it secretly and Adani ji gets Mumbai airport, public sector becomes private. When I questioned PM Modi on Adani in the Lok Sabha, I got this reply and my Lok Sabha membership was cancelled.

Reiterating that Rahul had said in the Lok Sabha on the Women’s Reservation Bill that only three OBC bureaucrats are working for the Government of India, Rahul Gandhi said that the caste census is the X-ray of India. Caste census will determine how many Dalits, OBCs, SC/STs there are, but the government is running away from the caste census. The Congress government will conduct caste census. This is my promise.

    Rahul said- Two remote controls are operational. We pressed the remote control we have in front of the camera but BJP and Narendra Modi press the remote control secretly. When we press the remote control, money comes into the accounts of the farmers, but when BJP presses the remote control, the public sector is privatized and water-forest-land goes in favor of Adani. Adani ji gets Mumbai airport, public sector becomes private. Modi ji presses the remote again and Adani gets the railway contract.

    Rahul said- When I asked in the Lok Sabha, Modi ji, what is your relationship with Adani. The answer I got was that my Lok Sabha membership was cancelled. Rahul Gandhi said- In all Congress ruled states, people are at the top. Our governments are not run by Adani ji. All our remote controls are for the public. Earlier on Sunday, in a media enclave, Rahul Gandhi had said that Congress is definitely winning the elections in both the states of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.
