He also pointed a finger at the BJP governments at the Centre and in Chhattisgarh for allegedly acquiring land for development, but the benefits are not reaped by the poor.
"We do not want such development," he announced.
Gandhi accused the Prime Minister of visiting tribal and poor areas during elections to seek votes, and not otherwise.
"I can write it down, he (Modi) will not come here before elections. When he comes, he will say 'we have brought good days. We can bring more good days so vote for us again'," Gandhi said addressing a rally.

Gandhi said Modi, "who wears a Rs 15 lakh suit," prefers to travel to foreign destinations instead.
"If Modiji takes off his Rs 15 lakh suit and comes here to these villages, he will see the value of MNREGA," he said.
He further charged that the Prime Minister repeatedly talks of 'acche din' and 'vikas' (development), but not of the poor. "I don't understand what kind of development is this," said Gandhi.
Gandhi claimed that Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh was doing a Modi at the state level.
