Jaipur : Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s statement related to the ‘Sikh’ community in America has created a stir in the country’s politics. Expressing displeasure over Rahul Gandhi’s statement, the BJP-backed Sikh cell protested outside Sonia Gandhi’s residence in Delhi on Wednesday. During this protest, BJP leader Tarvinder Singh Marwah made a controversial statement about Rahul Gandhi. After this, former Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot has accused BJP President JP Nadda of remaining silent. Actually, during this protest in Delhi, BJP leader and former MLA Tarvinder Singh had said, ‘Rahul Gandhi, come back, otherwise in the coming time, you will also face the same fate as your grandmother.’
JP Nadda’s silence is surprising- Gehlot
After this, former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot wrote on his X handle on Friday morning that, ‘Despite BJP’s efforts to defame him for 15-20 years, Rahul has now become the center of hope and expectation of the country. Due to this, BJP has become so desperate and aggressive that BJP leaders in the country’s capital Delhi are openly talking about killing Rahul Gandhi. BJP President JP Nadda’s silence on such statements is surprising. This shows to what extent BJP can go to maintain its power.
‘Rahul Gandhi’s visit has rattled the BJP’
Ashok Gehlot further said, ‘BJP is completely upset with the success of Rahul Gandhi’s US visit and has started spreading rumours about this visit across the country. The people taught a good lesson to the BJP which went to the Lok Sabha elections with the intention of changing the Constitution and removing reservation. Despite this, BJP is not refraining from lying on reservation. Rahul Gandhi has clearly said that reservation is necessary to bring equality in the society and its limit should also be increased as per the need.’
We will never let the intention be fulfilled- Former CM
Former CM Ashok Gehlot further wrote that, ‘Rahul Gandhi is fighting for social justice in the country, which he will take to its logical conclusion and will never let the BJP’s intention of tampering with reservation be fulfilled. BJP should now stop trying to mislead the country because the country understands the meaning of each and every word spoken by Rahul Gandhi in America and what is Rahul’s sentiment behind it.’
What did Rahul Gandhi say in America?
At a program in Virginia, USA, Rahul Gandhi said, “The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh considers some religions, languages and communities to be inferior to others. In India, the fight is not for politics but for this very issue.” During this, Rahul Gandhi asked the name of a Sikh person sitting in the gallery and said, “The fight is about whether a Sikh has the right to wear a turban or a bracelet in India or not, or as a Sikh he can go to the Gurudwara or not, in real terms the fight is about this and not just for them, but for all religions.”
