He does not put people first, Parliament first or even the country first. He puts tourism first. During crucial periods, when the party requires organisational support, he runs away. During Parliament sessions, he runs away. Rahul Gandhi is on constant vacation mode, Poonawalla claimed.The party spokesperson said the Congress leader may become the longest-serving opposition leader because he is only on vacation. On the one hand, Prime Minister Modi has become the longest-serving elected PM of the country. For over 9,000 days, as chief minister and as prime minister, as head of government, he has not taken a single day off. This is called work mode, service (seva) mode. On the other hand, Rahul Gandhi may well become the longest-serving opposition leader because he is only on vacation, Poonawalla said.He alleged that Gandhi undertook hundreds of foreign trips and tours and questioned the funding of these visits. People usually take one vacation between two work periods. Rahul Gandhi comes to India for a little bit of work between two vacation periods. He has spent crores of rupees on his vacations but is unable to provide an account of how he spends this money on foreign tours and travel, he claimed.Read more: INDIA 'janbandhan' for national polls, will overcome Shah's challenge of splitting parties: RameshHe alleged that Gandhi's foreign trips are funded by shady outfits. Obviously, it is sponsored by some shady organisations that set the agenda, which is usually an anti-India agenda. On that too, Congress and Rahul Gandhi do not give any account. Once again, Rahul Gandhi has gone abroad. He will spew venom against India and will be MIA -- missing in action -- when Parliament, the party and the people need him, he said.
