Congress opposition leader in parliament Rahul Gandhi has said that PM Modi would have lost the election in case he had contested from Ayodhya.
While speaking at a workers’ rally Rahul said, PM was advised by senior politicians not to contest from Ayodhya as there were possibilities of his defeat.
The opposition leader while speaking to workers said that Congress was ready to wipe out BJP from Gujrat in the next elections.
Congress he said would wrest Gujrat away from BJP’s hands and take Gujrat the home state of PM Modi where he had been as chief minister.
Rahul Gandhi’s remark comes in the wake of the BJP losing the Faizabad seat which includes Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh.
Rahul recalled the yath yatra taken out by BJP veteran LK Advani in 1990 to mobilise support for the construction of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya.
He said, the INDIA alliance has defeated the movement by winning the seat.
He said, congress will contest in Gujrat and defeat Narendra Modi like it happened in Ayodhya where BJP lost to the INDIA alliance despite being the ruling party.
