Lok Sabha Elections LIVE: Modi's Mega Rally In Pune Today; PM 'Taking Inspiration From Nazi Politician Goebbels', Says Congress

Lok Sabha Elections News LIVE Updates: The Congress on Monday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "taking inspiration" from Nazi politician Joseph Goebbels while speaking about the party's manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections. Congress's statement came amid the raging war of words between Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi continuing attacks in his speeches and interviews and the Grand Old Party countering the salvos. On Sunday, PM Modi in a rally in Karnataka accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of 'insulting India's Rajas and Maharajas', but remaining silent on the 'atrocities committed by Nawabs, Nizams, Sultans and Badshahs for the sake of appeasement politics'. In an interview with a news channel, PM Modi again slammed Congress over its manifesto and the so-called "wealth redistribution" poll promise.
