NEW DELHI: In his fourth question in the series "a question a day", Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday why Gujarat has been spending so less on education in the state.
"Why is Gujarat on the 26th position with regard to spending on government education? What wrong has the youth of the state done," he tweeted.
Rahul also accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "commercialising education at the cost of government schools and institutions and hitting students hard with fee hikes".
"How will the dream of a 'New India' be realised this way," Rahul asked Modi.
The Congress leader is leading his party's campaign in Gujarat ahead of the upcoming elections.
The tagline of his tweets to the prime minister is "22 salon ka hisaab, Gujarat mange jawaab (Gujarat demands answers for 22 years of BJP rule)".
Rahul had earlier asked Modi why public money was "squandered" in purchasing power at higher rates from private companies in Gujarat.
He also asked why the people of Gujarat should pay up for the "financial mismanagement" and publicity by him.
Gujarat, the home state of Modi and BJP president Amit Shah goes to polls in two phases on December 9 and December 14.
