Mumbai: Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi was greeted by former Maharashtra chief minister Ashok Chavan at his rally in Aurangabad on Wednesday.
Chavan's presence at his rally is being seen as an embarrassment for the Congress Vice President who is trying to build himself up as an anti-corruption crusader. Gandhi had intervened in the Adarsh Commission case after the Maharashtra government rejected the report which implicated Ashok Chavan.
Rahul in his rally in Aurangabad, made a veiled attack on Bharatiya Janata Party prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, and said that the BJP wants to vest power in the hands of "one person", and asserted that his party will drive out BJP like it forced out Britishers from India.
"It is not one person but crores of people who run the country. We want to empower you but BJP wants to hand over power to one man," Rahul said, addressing a public rally.
"BJP leaders who call themselves Hindu haven't read the Gita. Had they opened it, they would have realised that Congress party is not just an organisation but an ideology and no one can touch it," he said.
