From 'panauti', 'pickpockets' to 'paapi'-this is how opposition leaders targeting PM Modi in their speech

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi took a veiled dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and blamed him for India's heartbreaking loss to Australia in the World Cup final on November 21 during a poll rally in Rajasthan. "Our boys were easily going to win the World Cup but the 'bad omen' made us lose. The media won't point this out but people know," Rahul Gandhi said. At Bharatpur's Nadbai rally on November 23, Rahul Gandhi compared the functioning of the central government to pickpockets. He said that Modi, Adani and Amit Shah are working in tandem to pick the people’s pockets. "I can say that India would have won the final if the venue was Eden Gardens or Wankhede,” she said four days after the heart-wrenching loss. "Wherever sinners go...," the CM said, leaving the sentence hanging before adding, "sin spares no one", playing on the rhyming Bengali words “paap” and “baap”, without naming any BJP leader.
