Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, while speaking during an event in Germany, said that PM Narendra Modi's vision for India would fail. Rahul said, "There are...citizens like us who don't agree with PM Modi's...vision. We think the vision has tremendous problems, and it'll create massive tension in India." BJP's Pradeep Bhandari criticised him for the remark, saying, "Congress hates Bharat's progress?"
