New Delhi: CPI(M) Politburo member Brinda Karat on Monday hit out at Bharatiya Janata Party`s (BJP) prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, and Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) and said that while the Gujarat Chief minister talks on development, RSS is working in a destructive manner. “Modi is talking about vikas (development) while RSS is doing vinaash (destruction),” Karat said. Karat reportedly accused RSS of sowing seeds of communal violence and planning the election campaign for BJP and putting forward Modi as the party`s prime ministerial candidate. Karat had attacked BJP earlier also when it announced alliance with Telugu Desam Party (TDP) for the Lok Sabha polls and said that the coalition was “immoral.” She had also reportedly targeted Modi`s Gujarat model and said that it is a `hot air balloon` that lacked substance. Karat`s remarks came as the final phase voting is taking place in Bihar, West Bengal and uttar Pradesh.
