Rahul Gandhi Repeats Debate Challenge, Says Modi Would Not Remain Prime Minister

Congress leader and Lok Sabha Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi renewed his challenge to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a one-on-one public debate on Friday. Responding to a question during an Instagram Ask Me session, Gandhi said he wanted a direct exchange rather than long speeches and claimed he was not allowed to speak in Parliament, with his microphone switched off. Gandhi said the debate could involve both leaders making allegations against each other. He said he would accept Adani Group chair Gautam Adani or RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat as the debate’s judge. Gandhi claimed Modi would not remain prime minister after the exchange.
