New Delhi: Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday sought to woo the middle class by targeting the Narendra Modi government for “diluting” the real estate Bill and accusing it of working against home-buyers. The ruling BJP, however, hit back saying politics is a serious matter and cannot be done through “rent a cause” or “tokenism”.
Meeting a delegation of middle-class home-buyers, Mr Gandhi alleged that the BJP government “diluted” the UPA’s real estate Bill by making it “pro-builders”. “The main dilution is that earlier there was transparency. The carpet area that you sign is what would be given. They have diluted that now and from pro-buyer made it pro-builder,” he said.
In a rebut, union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said, “You cannot just disappear for 56 days while Parliament is on. You come one day, raise an issue and then vanish.”
