Rahul Gandhi feels PM chair his divine right, says BJP

New Delhi: The BJP on Monday mocked Rahul Gandhi's claim that he will soon come out with a "hydrogen bomb" of an expose as part of his "vote chori" charge, saying that his "atom bomb" had turned out to be a damp squib, while accusing him of demeaning his position of the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha with irresponsible comments.

Taking on Gandhi for his barbs at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said the Congress leader and his party have a history of "abusing" Modi. But people, he added, have repeatedly rejected Gandhi and have reposed faith in the PM. "Gandhi may believe that the prime minister's chair is his divine right, but people have and will continue to bless Modi with their votes," he said.

By alleging fraud and deceit behind the BJP's victories under Modi's leadership, the Congress leader has been insulting voters, he said.
