The entire nation is saying "chowkidar chor hai" but PM Modi is silent. 

I asked him the price of Rafale jets in the new agreement, why HAL was sidelined and why Ambani was given the deal. He could not look me in the eye and answer these questions.

Whenever Gujarat will call me, ask me be ready to work for the state.
