Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP of weakening the country by spreading fear and hatred, which he said will benefit India’s enemies, as the party tried to corner the government over the price rise issue with a massive rally here.

Launching an all-out attack on the Centre at the ‘Mehangai Par Halla Bol’ rally at Ramlila Maidan here, he alleged since the BJP government has come there is pressure on institutions such as media, judiciary, Election Commission, and the government is undermining them.
