Twitter had a lot to say about Rahul's speech in Lok Sabha.
Updated : Jul 28, 2016, 11:57 PM IST
Calling him 'arhar Modi, arhar Modi", Rahul Gandhi took swipes at Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha and tore into his election promise of bringing down prices. He also needled Modi on his election slogan asking people to make him a "chowkhidar" (watchman) and not PM and said under his nose but there was "theft" of pulses and he was not speaking a word on it. In a speech that lasted just a little over 15 minutes, Gandhi asked the prime minister to give a date4e by which the prices of pulses will come down.
Here's how Twitter reacted to Rahul Gandhi's speech in Lok Sabha:
People making fun of Modiji because of the rising Dal prices, do you even know how much Dal costed in Nehru's time? #ArharModi

#ArharModi will hit where it hurts the most. Not sure if RG or Congress will gain from it; but SP/BSP would be happy if it gains momentum.

Rahul Gandhi is listing dal prices in Parliament. Must be tough times in his Lutyens bungalow kitchen.
