"We are not scared of Narendra Modi, the 56-inch chest, Mann ki Baat...BJP & Modi ji are trying to give Mumbai's Dharavi land to Adani ji. The Congress govt in Maharashtra was overthrown to help Adani ji..."
Had PM Modi read Constitution, he wouldn't have spread hatred, divided society. PM Modi trying to hand over land worth Rs 1 lakh crore in Mumbai's Dharavi to industrialist. Not afraid of PM Modi, he is puppet of billionaires. Caste census is bound to happen. Rahul Gandhi at Jharkhand rally.

This comes after Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar on Thursday took a personal jibe at Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over the latter's recent comment about countering "vote jihad' with "vote dharmyudh". Is it that common people will fight this "dharmyudh" while children of leaders will study abroad far away from all this, Kumar asked. "Or will it happen that we will fight to protect 'dharma' while the deputy CM's wife makes Instagram reels," he said addressing a rally for the Congress in Nagpur South West seat.

The Congress on Friday accused the Centre of going "full throttle" on attempts to deny Adivasis justice and said the Dharti Aaba Janjatiya Gram Utkarsh Abhiyan (DAJGUA) was a "full mockery" of the Forest Rights Act, illustrating the government's hypocrisy.
The Opposition party also claimed that DAJGUA, in "typical Manuvadi fashion", only sees these communities as forest-dwelling 'vanvasis' who are 'labhaartis' (beneficiaries), rather than political and economic actors in their own right.
