It is very clear BJP govt is going, people angry and distressed: Priyanka Gandhi

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Sunday said it was "very clear" that the BJP will face defeat in Lok Sabha polls as people are "angry and distressed" and will convey their sentiments through voting.

Interacting with reporters after exercising her franchise, the senior party leader said, it was "very clear that the BJP government is going".

"There is anger among people, and they are under distress. Modiji, instead of talking about real issues, has been talking about random things. And, now, they will express their anger against this government through voting," the Congress general secretary said.

She said this will be witnessed especially in Uttar Pradesh.

Last week, criticising PM Modi calling her late father and former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi Bhrashtachari Number 1 (the most corrupt), Priyanka had said the Mahabharata character Duryodhana too had such arrogance.

This country has never forgiven ego and arrogance. History is witness to this, the Mahabharata is witness to this, she said.

Duryodhana also had such arrogance. When Lord Krishna went to make him understand, he tried to take him captive, the Congress general secretary in charge of eastern Uttar Pradesh said.
