Will Decide New PM After Election Results: Harish Rawat

Congress leader Harish Rawat said that they would decide after election results who the Prime Minister would be.

“Our leader has said it clearly we'll decide after election results that who will be the Prime Minister. But like Sharad Pawar Ji has said it again and again, 'coalition government have always been successful', an example of which is 2004-2014, when Singh was king,” he said.

Modi Will Go Down in 2019 With Rafale Taint: Sidhu

Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday, saying he had come to power in 2014 with a promise to clean the Ganga but will go down in 2019 with the 'Rafale' taint.

He claimed that the Modi government did not have a single achievement to its name and was deflecting from real issues.

"In 2014, Modi said neither will he indulge in corruption, nor will he allow others to do so (na khaunga, na khane dunga) but he has done just the opposite," the Punjab minister said.

"He came to power in 2014 seeking votes to clean the Ganga, but he will go in 2019 with the Rafale taint," Sidhu said, referring to the allegations levelled by his party against Modi on the multi-billion fighter jet deal.
