Just a day before Ivanka's tea-pat for the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi at an election rally in Gujarat said that he has sold tea but not the nation. And then came the Youth Congress' meme mocking "chaiwala" Narendra Modi. In the past, personal attacks on the Prime Minister have always worked to Modi's benefit, Sonia Gandhi's 'maut ka saudagar' barb during the Gujarat election campaign in 2007 being the best example. The BJP won the Assembly election in Gujarat that year and Modi became the chief minister. The chaiwala meme may have once again put the Congress on the back foot, this time in Gujarat.
