Politics of abuse overshadows real issues in Lok Sabha elections

In an attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam has likened him to "modern-day avatar of Aurangzeb".

"The people of this constituency chose a person [PM Narendra Modi] who is actually the modern-day avatar of Aurangzeb. Because in Varanasi, in the name of corridors hundreds of temples have been demolished on the instruction of Prime Minister Modi," Sanjay Nirupam said at a public meeting on Tuesday.
