In a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the “prime time minister”
continued shooting for a film till even three hours after news of the Pulwama terror strike came in.
There was an ocean of pain in the country’s hearts and in the homes of martyrs and he was smiling and doing a photo shoot in the waters, Rahul said on Twitter with #’PhotoShootSarkar’.
Adding to the controversy surrounding PM Modi’s whereabouts after the Pulwama attack, Rahul tweeted four photographs of the Prime Minister in Jim Corbett Park.
Accompanying the photographs, Rahul wrote, “Even three hours after the martyrdom of 40 soldiers in Pulwama, ‘prime time minister’ was shooting for a film.”
“There was a sea of grief in the hearts of Indians and homes of the soldiers, and he was smiling in his photoshoot at a lake,” Rahul tweeted in Hindi.
Rahul went on to say, “A river of mourning in the hearts of the nation and the homes of the martyrs and he [PM
Modi] was laughing and getting a photo shoot done next to a river.”
This was a reference to photos that show the prime minister in a motorboat in the Jim Corbett national park.
Congress’ chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala, addressing a Press conference, also claimed that the Prime Minister continued to “have tea and samosas at seven o’clock in a PWD guest house when every single Indian household didn’t eat food (that day)”.
