Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday attacked the Centre alleging that two Indias, one for the rich and one for the poor, have been created and the gap between them was widening.
Speaking first from the Opposition side in the Lok Sabha during the debate on the Motion of Thanks on the President's address, he said the address to a joint sitting of Parliament didn't touch the central challenges facing the country and was a "list of bureaucratic ideas" instead of a strategic vision.
The presidential address made no mention of unemployment, the Congress leader claimed.
There are two Indias -- one for the rich, one for the poor -- and the gap between the two was widening, Gandhi alleged and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to start working towards bringing the two Indias, created by this government, together.
He claimed that 40 per cent of India's wealth has gone to a chosen few.
Meanwhile, when Gandhi spoke about 'Two Indias', Twitter users found similarities with comedian Vir Das's poem by the same name. For the uninitiated, Das had last November faced huge backlash over his viral monologue at the Kennedy Centre in Washington.
"Vir Das ne likhke diya hai kya tumko speech," a Twitter user commented. "Speech written by @thevirdas," wrote another.
