NEW DELHI: Reacting to opposition leader Rahul Gandhi’s comments about “Sikhs”, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday challenged Congress leaders to repeat in India what they said about Sikhs in Virginia and said they would file a case against the LoP. and drag it to court.
BJP leader RP Singh on Tuesday slammed Rahul Gandhi and said that 3000 Sikhs were killed in Delhi and it happened when Congress was in power.
“3000 Sikhs were massacred in Delhi; their turbans were removed, their hair was shaved, and their beards were shaved…He (Rahul Gandhi) did not say that this happened when he (Congress) came to power. .I challenge Rahul Gandhi to repeat in India what he said about Sikhs, then I will file a case against him and drag him to court,” said RP Singh.
Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan reminded Rahul Gandhi of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and said that when Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the leader of the opposition, he never tried to tarnish the country’s image.
“Rahul Gandhi is the LoP, and the LoP position is a responsible position. I want to remind Rahul Gandhi that when Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the LoP, in a foreign country, he never tried to tarnish the country’s image… Because he was defeated for the third time, anti-BJP , anti-RSS, and anti-Modi have taken root in their minds … They are constantly trying to tarnish the image of the country This is tantamount to treason … Who is attacking the Constitution?
BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal reacted to Rahul Gandhi’s statement and said that people who are involved in corruption, fraud and misuse of state resources are scared.
“Who is afraid? Only those involved in corruption, fraud and misuse of state resources should be afraid, should be afraid. But not a single person can say that they are afraid of PM. Narendra Modi Rahul Gandhi said this because of the popularity of PM Modi among them they cannot bear not to make irresponsible claims in foreign countries,” Khandelwal said.
BJP national spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari, Congress Party, is afraid that his false propaganda will be exposed.
“Today, if there is fear anywhere, it is in the Congress party. When a woman in Congress talks about seat casting, she is suspended by the party. With the alliance accused of rape Today, the Congress party is afraid that the propaganda of lies will be seen by those who voted for Modi-led BJP in 2014, 2019 and Modi-led NDA in 2024,” Bhandari said.
“Rahul Gandhi is a double party; he only fights against one person. He likes when India is hurt, so he comes out and bats for China and lies to India. Today, the opposition does not build, it can even destroy India for political gain People- people are afraid of that opposition.
Meanwhile, TMC MP Shatrughan Sinha backed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks about “unemployment” during his visit to the US and said that BJP people always have a problem with him.
“I can give public opinion and want to say that if Rahul Gandhi says something or Bharat Jodo Yatra, BJP people always have a problem with it. I am not Rahul Gandhi’s spokesperson, but as a public observer, I can say that whatever what Rahul Gandhi said was right,” Sinha said.
Earlier on Monday in Virginia, the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha said the fight was over whether Sikhs would be allowed to wear turbans in India and would be able to visit Gurdwaras.
“First of all, you need to understand what the war is. The war is not political. It is shallow. What is your name? The war is about whether he, as a Sikh, will be allowed to wear a turban. Or a Sikh will be allowed to wear a kada in India.” he said.
Further, he continued his criticism of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, admitting that the “fear of Prime Minister Narendra Modi” among people has disappeared after the results of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections were announced.
“Something has changed after the election. PM Modi is trying to create an environment of fear. Various agencies, media, income tax department are trying to spread fear, even among small and medium businesses. However, nothing can be done. The fear disappears in one Second, the spread of fear took many years, but you can see it in the front of the parliament, his partner in the government and in India, said three or four senior ministers.
Rahul Gandhi, who is visiting the US, arrived in Dallas on Sunday. He interacted with students and teachers at the University of Texas and also spoke to members of the Indian diaspora in Dallas and Virginia.
