Modi sardar of liars, he slept as China encroached: Kharge

NT Correspondent

New Delhi: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday called Prime Minister Narendra Modi the "sardar of liars", also accusing him of “sleeping" while China "entered" Indian territory.

Addressing an election rally in Rajasthan's Chittorgarh, he said Modi does not think of the country and is busy abusing the Gandhi family whose members sacrificed their lives for the nation.

Kharge said the prime minister boasts that he has a “56-inch chest” and is not scared.

“If you are not afraid then why have you left a large part of our land for China?” he said.

“They are coming inside and you are sleeping. Have you taken sleeping pills? Have they taken opium from the fields of Rajasthan... and fed you?" he said in Hindi.

(“Wo andar ghus kar aa rahe, aap kya neend kar rahe ho? Kya neend ki goli khaaye ho? Kya Rajasthan ke kheton me se afeem le jaake... ya wo khilaye hein kya?")
