PM Modi is in the habit of peeping into others' bathrooms : Rahul Gandhi

Lucknow, Feb 11 (IBNS) : After Narendra Modi delivered a series of nasty blows, packed with derision and slight at Congress leaders, Rahul Gandhi on Saturday sought to pay him back, saying the Prime Minister is in the habit searching google and peeping into others' bathrooms, reports said.

"Narendra Modiji likes to read horoscopes. He likes google search and he likes to peep into others’ bathrooms. He should do so in his free time – during the evenings," the Congress Vice-President said  at a press meet where the Congress-Samajwadi Party alliance’s 10-point common agenda was released.

He also said the Prime Minister will get a jolt" once the results of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections are out.

Gandhi, who accused Modi of being a "failure" in all fronts,  suggested that the PM  instead work on security, farmers and providing employment to the youth instead,

His attack against Modi came a day after the PM  mocked at him, saying he is the "most joked about politician" in the Congress.

On Friday, Modi had also warned the Congress leaders, saying, "hold your tongue, I have your entire horoscope."

Few days ago, Modi had also made a mocking reference at his predecessor Manmohan Singh, when he said one should learn the art of " bathing with a raincoat on " from Manmohan Singh as there was not a single taint on him despite so many scams having taken place during his regime.

On Saturday, Gandhi shot back. With UP  Chief Minister  Akhilesh Yadav by his side.

He said the PM had promised 2 crore jobs for the youth every year but only one lakh jobs were generated last year and none this year.

"The PM had failed on every front and was realising that Congress-SP alliance was coming to power in Uttar Pradesh... “This will give a severe jolt to the PM’s credibility. He is PM for 2.5 years. He is free to take out the horoscope of anybody he wants to.”

Akhilesh Yadav said the PM should not play with emotions and should not lose his cool

“This is an internet age. The horoscope is available at the click of the mouse. This is an election for the prosperity and development of Uttar Pradesh," he said.
