Taking a swipe at the government, Ramesh, who is also party's communication in-charge said, 'In his first speech after coming back from the unjustified disqualification, Rahul Gandhi spoke from 12:09 p.m. to 12:46 p.m. i.e. 37 minutes during the No-Confidence Motion. 'Out of which the Sansad TV camera showed him for only 14 minutes 37 seconds. That's less than 40 per cent screen time. What is Modi afraid of'? Ramesh, who is also a Rajya Sabha MP said. His remarks came after Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday tore into the BJP and attacked the Prime Minister during his speech in the Lok Sabha.
