In what seemed like yet another political stunt, Rahul Gandhi after getting bail in the defamation case on Wednesday morning at the Bhiwandi court decided to meet people waiting in the queue at an ATMs at Vakola, in Mumbai.

Earlier in the day, after getting the bail, the Congress vice-president slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“Modi ji took the decision of demonetisation; you are now standing in the queue; have you seen any rich people standing there,” he said.

"Those who are real black marketeers, those who have Rs 10,000-20,000 crore, those who go with Modi in planes, action should be taken against them. No action is being taken," he said.

The Congress Vice-President, while interacting with the reporters outside the Bhiwandi court in Thane district, alleged of no investigation or action being carried out against 'Modiji's industrialist friends'. 

The Congress vice-president was given the bail by Bhiwandi court in a criminal defamation case filed by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on personal surety. 

"You are being made to stand in queues. Your money will be given to those select 15-20 industrialists. You all know their names. He (Modi) is running their government," the Gandhi scion alleged.
