Addressing an election rally in Jharkhand on Thursday, Gandhi had said that Modi had launched ‘Make in India’, but nowadays it is ‘rape in India’.

Earlier in the day, Gandhi refused to apologise for his remark and alleged that the issue is being raised by the BJP to deflect the attention of the people from the protests in the North-East.
