Priyanka Gandhi's 'envelope' swipe at PM Modi
She said, "I saw on TV, I don't know if it's true or not, that the Prime Minister visited the Dev Narayan Temple here."
Priyanka Gandhi stated that the Prime Minister had placed an envelope in the temple's donation box.
She remarked, "I watched on TV that after six months, the envelope deposited by the Prime Minister was finally opened. People were wondering what could be inside that envelope. The Prime Minister, a significant leader of our nation, had made a donation there, and when the envelope was revealed, it contained only Rs 21."
She continued, "This is the state of affairs in our country. Grand announcements are made, various envelopes are presented to you from the stage. However, when you open these envelopes after the elections, there is nothing inside."
Gandhi urged the people to be cautious of such political tactics.
