"Today, some so called smart people, some new economists have emerged who are misleading people," he declared in his speech in Gujarati.
"Those who have looted people throughout their life, they can only remember dacoits," Modi stated in a reply to Gandhi's 'Gabbar Singh Tax' jibe, recalling the enduring villain from the Bollywood blockbuster "Sholay".

"What kind of smartness is this... how has such an economist emerged here. You want to make goods used by the poor like clothes, footwear and food costlier and you want to make cigarettes and liquor cheaper," he stated, ripping into the "anti poor" Congress over its complaint of the tax reform.
The prime minister went on to mention that making cigarettes cheaper manner bringing most cancers in each and every house and asked which rich businessmen the opposition leader sought to profit by way of making liquor cheaper.
He also introduced up Rahul Gandhi's grandmother, the late Indira Gandhi.

"I remember then prime minister Indira Gandhi had come here and Chitralekha (a local language magazine) had printed her photo with a handkerchief over her nose, trying to avoid the stench, while another photo on the same front page had RSS workers carrying dead bodies," he stated.
"Those who have helped us in times of difficulties should be remembered," he added.
Modi then went on to list how his executive had worked to carry waters from the Narmada to the parched areas of Saurashtra and Kutch.
"The Congress' development model was giving hand-pumps. For the BJP it is the SAUNI scheme (the Narmada water project for Saurashtra region), where we will fill dams of Saurashtra through huge pipelines."
The culture of this parched land, Modi stated, was to offer respect to people who have attempted to do something to provide water.
