Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Thursday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's so-called bold decision of demonetisation was actually a "foolish" decision.

Here is what all Rahul Gandhi said on demonetisation:

#PM Narendra Modi's so-called bold decision (#DeMonetisation) was a "foolish" decision

#The responsibility of running the House is with the Govt and Speaker not the Opposition

#The idea behind cashless economy is that a few ppl must get maximum benefits from these transactions, this has damaged the nation

#He (PM Modi) is laughing, having a nice time while the people of the country are suffering

#Lok Sabha mein agar mujhe bolne diya jaye toh main sab bata doonga ki Paytm kaise "PAY TO MODI" hota hai

#PM Modi is running away, if he comes to the House for debate, we won't let him run

#PM's narrative has changed; started by saying it’s against black money, then terrorism, then counterfeit currency and later cashless economy

#This is not a bold decision, it is a foolish decision which has been taken without any due consideration

#It has devastated poor, farmers, daily wage workers. We want to have a discussion. We want a vote, Govt doesn't
