The Congress today said that the entry fee of Rs. 5 for a Narendra Modi rally in Hyderabad next month reflects his market value.
Union Minister Manish Tewari tweeted that tickets for even flop films sell for Rs. 200-250. Later, he said, "It's now become very evident that the BJP has decided to impose a listening tax... When will they impose a speaking tax?"
The BJP retaliated that it has delivered a paradigm shift. "People paying to hear a leader! And the proceeds to be given away for a cause-Uttarakhand? Unheard of in our political culture?" tweeted spokesperson Nirmala Sitharaman.
The Lal Bahadur Stadium in Hyderabad, which can accommodate 30,000 people, has been booked for the speech, but the BJP expects a lakh to attend.
In public comments in recent days, Mr Modi appears to be re-embracing the sort of hardliner image that he spent years trying to bury. His critics say that he did not do enough to check the deadly communal riots in Gujarat in 2002, when he had just taken over as chief minister. Mr Modi has, in recent years, offered his economic development of his home state as his main strength.
