On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stepped up his attack on the Congress and said he was standing as a wall between the people and the grand old party's plans to maraud them. Addressing an election rally in Madhya Pradesh's Morena megacity, Modi said former high minister Rajiv Gandhi had abolished the heritage duty after his mama Indira Gandhi's death to save her.
After serving from it, the Congress now wants to put it again on the people of the country, he said. However, it'll catch further than half of the earnings of the people through heritage duty, he said, If the Congress comes to power. A day after Rahul Gandhi's comment that those who call themselves "desh-bhakt" are spooked of the X-ray of estate tale, Modi said the Congress wants to expropriate people's jewellery and small savings by conducting an X-ray of their parcels and valuables.
