PM continues attack on Cong, says Rajiv Gandhi scrapped Inheritance tax to reap benefits
Addressing an election rally at Morena in Madhya Pradesh in the morning the PM launched a barrage of accusations on the Congress.
He may not be a true follower of the style of politics that former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee believed in, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid a rare tribute to the three-time BJP PM by covering his final journey on foot on Friday.
In a rare gesture, Prime Minister Modi joined the sea of people who walked down from the BJP headquarters up to the Smriti Sthal, a distance of roughly 5 km. By doing so, the Prime Minister set aside the protocol and apprehensions over his security. This was a silent gesture of PM Modi to show how much he loved and respected BJP stalwart AB Vajpayee.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with BJP president Amit Shah, led the tens of thousands of admirers of the former PM, keeping pace with the Army vehicle carrying the mortal remains of Vajpayee.
Vajpayee’s funeral procession started from the BJP headquarters on the Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg, and then took the Bahadur Shah Zaffar Marg, crossed Delhi Gate and Daryaganj, to take the Netaji Subhash Marg, before reaching Smriti Sthal at Shanti Van.
Social media was flooded with posts appreciating PM Modi’s gesture towards the former PM.
