Whether Rafale or Mallya and Nirav or the employment scene, Congress president brings up the Prime Minister’s name.

In Europe, Rahul's Singular Target Is Modi
Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of being “unpatriotic” for misusing public anger over the country’s “job problem”.

Reiterating a theme that has run through his interactions during his visit to the U.K. and Germany, Mr. Gandhi drew parallels between Mr. Modi, U.S. President Donald Trump and other “populist” leaders.

“Instead of calming this anger, instead of telling this anger, ‘Yes we have a problem; we are going to work together to fix it’, Mr. Modi does something very unpatriotic … he takes that anger and utilises it for himself and damages our country,” Mr. Gandhi said.

“Neither the Western world nor India is able to solve its crisis for the blue collar part of society and that is what Mr. Modi rides on,” the Congress chief told a meeting of the Indian Journalist Association.
