Since the past few days, Rahul Gandhi has been on a continuous attack mode, questioning the Centre on various issues including China, economy and handling on coronavirus in India. 

The Congress leader on Tuesday morning, in a tweet, questioned Centre's 'Atmanirbhar' (self reliant) programme and said Modi-lead government has 'misplaced priorities' for India. 

The tweet, in Hindi, read 'Achievements of government during the COVID-19 period: In February, Namaste Trump (US President Donald Trump's visit to India); in March, Madhya Pradesh government toppled; in April, lighting candles; in May, sixth anniversary of the government; in June, virtual rally in Bihar and in July attempt to topple the Rajasthan government.'

"That is why the country is 'Aatmanirbhar' (self-sufficient) in the fight against coronavirus," he said.

The former Congress President listed six priorities of Centre which led to India becoming the third-worst coronavirus-hit country in just five months.

​Prime Minister Narendra Modi had given the call for 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' during the COVID-19 lockdown to revive India's economy which was badly hit due to the pandemic.

In the last one week, Rahul Gandhi made multiple scathing attacks on Modi and the Centre through a series of short videos.  

On Monday, the Congress leader said that 'PM fabricated a fake strongman image to come to power. It was his biggest strength. It is now India's biggest weakness.'
