New Delhi, July 28 (IBNS): Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Thursday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government's policies and highlighted the severe impact of inflation on common man.

"You make as many empty wishes you wish but please give a date to this House when the price of lentils will reduce," Gandhi said while speaking at the Lok Sabha.

He said: "You must help big industrialists but you should also not forget poor people of this nation."

Attacking the PM on the increasing price of lentils, Gandhi said: "All across villages, a  new slogan has emerged-Arhar Modi."

He said the Congress will play the role of 'security guards' for the people of India.

"You wanted to play the role of 'chowkidaar' (security guard) for the people of India. I am asking you to leave that task for us," the Congress leader said.
