On the last day of Indian LS election campaign, PM Narendra Modi appeared in the first press conference in 5 years of his Prime Ministership, which is being claimed by media as a ‘guest appearance’, because he did not answer any questions, passing them over to Amit Shah to answer.
In the press conference organised by BJP President, when asked a direct question, Modi passed it to BJP President Amit Shah saying, “President is everything for us”.
According to India Today, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed his first press conference today but avoided answering any question. All questions asked during the press conference were instead answered by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah, who was seated next to him.”
Responding to Modi’s press conference, Rahul Gandhi tweeted @RahulGandhi, “Congratulations Modi Ji. Excellent Press Conference! Showing up is half the battle. Next time Mr Shah may even allow you to answer a couple of questions. Wee done!
