Reacting sharply to Gandhi’s targeting of Prime Minister Modi, Parliamentary Affairs minister Pralhad Joshi on Wednesday described the former Congress president as a “fake Gandhi” and as a person “who knows nothing” but has become an expert on everything.
Speaking at the ‘Mohabbat Ki Dukaan’ event organised by Indian Overseas Congress USA in Santa Clara in the US state of California on Tuesday, Gandhi said these people are “absolutely convinced” that they know everything and can explain history to historians, science to scientists and warfare to the army.
“The world is too big and complicated for any person to know everything. That is the disease. There is a group of people in India who are absolutely convinced they know everything. They think they know even more than God.
“They can sit with God and explain to him what’s going on. And of course, our Prime Minister is one such specimen. If you sat Modiji with God, he will explain to God how the universe works and God will get confused about what have I created,” he said, evoking peals of laughter from hundreds of his Indian-American supporters.
“They think they can explain history to historians, science to scientists and warfare to the army.
But at the core of it is mediocrity. They’re not ready to listen!” he said.
Responding to Gandhi’s speech, Joshi claimed that the Congress leader’s knowledge of history did not go beyond his family.
