At a conference of Indians in Washington, the Congress functionary stated the “concept of Modi” – 56 inches and direct reference to God – has disappeared in a jiffy, and persons are not afraid of PM Modi after the 2024 Lok Sabha outcomes.
Stressing on his now established chorus of risk to spiritual minorities below the Modi govt, Rahul singled out a Sikh member within the viewers and requested him his identify, who replied Bhalender Singh. He then stated, “Combat (in India) shouldn’t be about politics. That’s superficial. The combat is about whether or not… he (Bhalender) as a Sikh goes to be allowed to put on his turban in India, put on a Kada in India, or be capable of go to a gurdwara, that is what the combat is about, and never only for him, for all religions… the combat is about what sort of India we’re going to have.”
Responding to a query on reservations and the way lengthy it might proceed, Rahul stated, “We are going to consider scrapping reservations when India is a good place. And India shouldn’t be a good place. Whenever you have a look at the monetary numbers, tribals get 10 paise out of Rs 100, Dalits get Rs 5 out of Rs 100, and OBCs get the same quantity. The actual fact of the matter is that they are not getting participation.”
Rahul jibed that post-2024 polls, folks cease him on the roads and inform him that their worry has vanished. He laughed whereas it took BJP years to unfold the scare by companies, it disappeared in a matter of seconds.
In New Delhi, Congress stated it’s hypocritical of BJP to criticise Rahul Gandhi for his justified feedback within the US when PM Modi has been going overseas and “insulting generations of Indians” by saying that nothing occurred in India in 60 years earlier than 2014.
Congress common secretary Okay C Venugopal stated, ” BJP ecosystem is nervous and flailing as a result of Rahul has spoken the plain reality. The ‘Modi bubble’ has burst. His politics of worry has failed, and no one takes him or his band of cheerleaders severely. Rahul has time and time once more warned concerning the BJP-RSS’ harmful politics of hatred and division. His total mission has been to herald love. BJP-RSS is the only greatest risk to this inclusivity.”
