Addressing an event in Karnataka yesterday, the Congress vice president had accused Modi of seeking to subjugate various democratic institutions of the country in collusion with the RSS and the bureaucracy with an aim to "mutilate" the Constitution.
Later, Gandhi also tweeted, "Hitler, once wrote: Keep a firm grasp on reality, so you can strangle it at any time(.) This is what is happening today-strangulation of reality."
In another tweet, he had said that emperor "is completely naked" but nobody around him has the "courage" to tell him that.
