New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday made a direct attack on Narendra Modi's administration and said that people ruling the country are hate-mongers and divisive, reported PTI.

Speaking at the inauguration of a building of Mukkam Muslim Orphanage in Kerala, the Congress MP said the result of the anger spread by the government reflects on the economy --- the increasing level of unemployment and sky-rocketing prices of commodities.

"Today, it is clear that people ruling our country are spreading anger, spreading hatred and dividing the country. You can see the result of the anger spread by our government. You can see what has happened to our economy, look at the level of unemployment, the skyrocketing prices," said Gandhi, who was on a two-day visit to Kerala.

The leader further said that it is the government’s divisive policies that people are not working in sync and suggested a conversation between people to make them realise they all are the same.

Gandhi further said people should be made to realise that if their neighbour is unhappy, it would only be a matter of time before they would also become unhappy. Therefore, people should treat others as they treat themselves. "That is the task in front of us," he said.

Responding to hatred with hatred or anger was not the solution, the only way to fight hatred is through love and affection, he said.

Meanwhile, from the election point of view, exit polls across the country show loss for Congress in Uttar Pradesh. However, the situation seems to be turning favourable for the party in Uttarakhand and Goa.
