Lucknow: Slamming Prime Minister Narendra Modi for saying that his government never discussed a nationwide National Register of Citizens (NRC), Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi on Saturday asserted that the country is now able to recognise his "cowardice".
"After talking about NRC, you said that it was never discussed. The country is now able to recognize your cowardice. It wants the truth," Gandhi said while addressing a public rally in Uttar Pradesh's Lucknow.

"I want to tell the 130 crore people of India that ever since my government came to power in 2014... from then until now... there has been no discussion on NRC anywhere..." PM Modi had declared at his Ramlila Maidan rally on Sunday.
