Ahead of the Assembly polls in Tamil Nadu, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is campaigning in several cities of the state. During his rally in Tirunelveli on February 27, Rahul Gandhi said, “I fall asleep at night in 30 seconds as I am not afraid of Mr Modi (Prime Minister Narendra Modi). How long does Tamil Nadu Chief Minister take? He can't sleep at night as he isn't honest. Since he is dishonest he can't stand up against Mr Modi who thinks he can control people of Tamil Nadu because Chief Minister is corrupt.”
“Mr Modi thinks Tamil Nadu is like his television, he can pick up remote and do whatever he wants. He can put volume up and Chief Minister will talk louder and vice versa. He thinks he can control people of Tamil Nadu, but people are going to remove battery from remote and throw away,” he added.
