Bengaluru: In the backdrop of by-polls in Hanagal and Sindgi Assembly constituencies in Karnataka, Congress and Bhartiya Janata Party indulged in a Twitter war on Monday. A personal attack has been launched by Congress on PM Narendra Modi. In a tweet, he has been called illiterate. The tweet says that Congress built schools but PM Modi didn’t attend them and India has to face the consequence now.
"Congress built schools but Modi never went to study. Congress even set up schemes for adults to learn, Modi didn't learn there too. People who chose to beg for a living despite beggary being prohibited are today pushing citizens to beggary. Country is suffering because of "#angoothachhaap modi," the Karnataka Congress tweeted in Kannada.
The comment was called out by many as a personal attack on the Prime Minister.
Hitting out at the Congress, the BJP said, "Though there were enough schools, a 50-year-old and a senior youth leader did not study in India at all. Though there was an adult education programme, Pappu did not grow mentally. He is wandering like a beggar that he would become prime minister because his great grand-father and father were prime ministers."
