Barbs flew on Friday afternoon as Narendra Modi and Rahul Gandhi held press conferences almost simultaneously in Delhi, though the Prime Minister’s briefing was a monologue in which he said the people had rejected the Congress in 2014 and will do so again this year to give the BJP a second term with an absolute majority. For his part, Congress president Gandhi said Modi will do some "distract India" event again, but the country won't get distracted.
