She said she wanted to ask him about what kind of love was it that boycotted the inauguration of the new Parliament? Irani asked him to tell her what kind of love was it which was to be silent while the film The Kerala Story was released.

She said she could not understand what kind of love is it that shook hands and hugged those people who curse India or the concept of India.

Irani adding to her attack, said, Rahul Gandhi is only defaming India outside its national boundaries. During the press conference, she listed the achievements of the Modi-ruled Centre government in the last nine years.

She said, women are more protected today and cited the success of government programs like Beti Padhao and Beti Bachao. She hailed the government for its efforts of holistic development, talking about the government scheme of Sabka Saath and Sabka Vikas.
