Jalandhar, Punjab:
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today attacked the Congress and Rahul Gandhi over a 2014 incident when he said his helicopter was held up in Punjab because “Yuvraj (prince)” was flying to Amritsar.
PM Modi said he had gone to Punjab to campaign for the 2014 national election, after being named the BJP’s presumptive Prime Minister, when the incident took place.
“My name was announced for PM candidate. I had to visit Pathankot and Himachal to campaign. But my chopper was not allowed to fly because their yuvraj (prince) was also in Amritsar. So the Congress has a habit of not allowing the opposition to work,” PM Modi said at a rally in Jalandhar ahead of Sunday’s election in Punjab.
