A day after the no-confidence motion was defeated in the Lok Sabha, Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi uses ‘hate, fear and anger’ to build his narrative.

Taking to Twitter, Rahul said that while the prime minister uses hate and fear, the Congress will prove that love and compassion are the only way to build a nation.

“The point of yesterday’s debate in Parliament. PM uses Hate, Fear and Anger in the hearts of some of our people to build his narrative. We are going to prove that Love and Compassion in the hearts of all Indians, is the only way to build a nation,” Gandhi tweeted.

After Gandhi’s fiery speech in the Lok Sabha on Friday, the Congress had said that their party chief has shown the mirror of love and compassion to PM Modi with his hug and has given the country a new political discourse that can bind it together.

“Let them spread hatred, we will spread love, let them spread division, we will spread compassion, let they spread venom, we will spread cohabitation. For, we are the Congress and we are Indians and humanity,” Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala had said.

He said Gandhi described Hinduism and ‘Hindustaniat’ as the one which loved even the worst enemies, for that is the innate strength of Indian culture.

“A new political discourse has now been set as a valid alternative to the culture of hatred and division as espoused by the prime minister and the BJP,” he added.

Gandhi hugged Modi and later appeared to wink in some dramatic moments in the Lok Sabha, capping his blistering attack on the prime minister, accusing him of being a bhagidar’ (collaborator) in corruption and not a ‘chowkidar’ and saying people were victims of his ‘jumla’ strikes.
