Congress leader Rahul Gandhi hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over growing incidents of lynching in the country.

The word "lynching" was practically unheard of before 2014, he said, suggesting that such incidents have been on the rise after the current government came to power.

"Before 2014, the word 'lynching' was practically unheard of," Gandhi said in a one-line tweet with #ThankYouModiJi.
