Patna (Bihar) [India], October 29 (ANI): Union Minister and BJP's Bihar election in-charge, Dharmendra Pradhan, on Wednesday criticised Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's 'dance for votes' remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asserting that the comment has "crossed all limits."
Pradhan claimed that the Congress MP made the remarks out of fear of losing the assembly polls.
"Rahul Gandhi ji today crossed all limits, and used objectionable words against the PM and Chhath festival. He did this due to fear of loss. No words are enough to condemn what he said today. For the last two decades, the people of Bihar have been voting against their (RJD & Congress) jungle raj. They have repeatedly trampled the aspirations of Bihar's youth. Earlier too, they had insulted PM Modi's mother....," Pradhan told ANI.
Earlier today, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a staunch attack against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging he would 'do anything for votes'.


Addressing an election rally at Muzaffarpur on Wednesday, Gandhi reiterated his "vote theft" allegations, accusing PM Modi of attempting to steal votes in the Bihar elections.
The Congress leader said, "He (PM Modi) just wants your vote. If you ask him to do a drama for votes, he will. You can make him do anything. If you tell Narendra Modi to dance, he will dance."

"They are engaged in stealing your votes. Because they want to end this election disease, I am telling you, they stole elections in Maharashtra, they stole elections in Haryana, and they will try their best in Bihar," he added.
Dharmendra Pradhan also reacted to Rahul Gandhi's claim that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar is just a face in the NDA government in the State, but the "remote control" is in the hands of the BJP.
"They are unable to tolerate the way Bihar is progressing under Nitish Kumar's leadership...Who is Rahul Gandhi to make statements on Nitish Kumar?... The people of Bihar will teach a lesson to those who try to mislead them... No one is taking Tejashwi (Yadav) seriously," the BJP leader said.
The Congress leader said in an election rally here, "Nitish ji's face is being used. The remote control is in the hands of the BJP. You should not think that the voice of the most backward people is heard there,"
"Three or four people control it. BJP controls it. They have the remote controller in their hands, and they have nothing to do with social justice. I said in front of the Prime Minister in the Lok Sabha that you should get the caste census done. He did not say a single word... BJP is against social justice. They do not want it," he added.
The assembly elections will be held in two phases on November 6 and 11. The results will be declared on November 14. (ANI)
