New
Delhi: Congress
vice president Rahul Gandhi on Monday mocked the Gujarat model of development,
calling it the "toffee model of development". "In Gujarat, Adani
gets land in just Rupee 1, the same money which you spend to buy a toffee. It's
a toffee model," Rahul said.
He continued his acerbic attack on Narendra Modi, the chief
minister of Gujarat and BJP's prime ministerial candidate, "Tata gets loan
for 20 years in just 1 per cent interest while farmers get it on 12 per
cent."
Rahul was addressing a rally in Maharashtra's Latur district and
this was perhaps his first clear use of humour to attack his adversary. Rahul's
speeches are more data-based, while Modi speaks the language of the people to
attack his rivals, a clever trick to gain popularity.
