New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sudhanshu Trivedi on April 8 attacked Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi over his Bihar visit and said that the latter toured Bihar to solve the Congress’s problems in the state.
Addressing a press conference in the national capital, Sudhanshu Trivedi said that the Congress has been facing the most problems since his tenure.
“Rahul Gandhi, since the tenure of whose leadership, Congress has been facing the most problems. He toured Bihar in the name of solving the problems of Congress, but everyone saw how much infighting there was among his workers. At the same time, the insult he has done to the people of Bihar is unpardonable. Rahul Gandhi said in his statement ‘chhoti jaati’… With humility, firmness and anger, I want to ask the Congress party, who are you calling the so-called ‘chhoti jaati’? Our Chief Minister Nitish Kumar comes from the same class which you called OBC and EBC,” Trivedi said.
Continuing his attack on Rahul Gandhi, he said that the latter said that the Constitution is thousands of years old, but the Constitution was drafted on November 26, 1949 and implemented on January 26, 1950
“Rahul Gandhi, who is a young leader of Indian politics, said in his statement that the Constitution of India was not written in 1947 only. Rahul Gandhi does not know that the Constitution of India was written and prepared on 26th November 1949; that is why Prime Minister Narendra Modi has celebrated Constitution Day on 26th November. The Constitution Day was needed to make such misguided youth understand, and the Congress did not welcome the Constitution Day and indirectly opposed it. He said that the Constitution is thousands of years old…The Constitution was drafted on 26 November 1949 and implemented on January 26, 1950,” he said.
Earlier, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s national spokesperson Jaiveer Shergill mocked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and stated that if his autobiography was written, it would be titled as ‘Failure to Launch.’
Further, Shergill said that by commenting on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Congress leader had made a mockery of himself.
Speaking to ANI, Shergill said “If Rahul Gandhi’s autobiography is written today, its title will be ‘Failure to Launch’. By commenting on the Prime Minister, he mocks himself. On one hand, the Prime Minister has been the Chief Minister thrice. He is serving as the Prime Minister of the country for the third time and is famous all over the world.”
On Monday, Rahul Gandhi was in Bihar, where he joined the Congress’ student wing’s (NSUI) ‘Palayan Roko Naukri Do’ rally in Begusarai and Samvidhan Suraksha Sammelan.
The Lok Sabha LoP said that the people from weaker sections of society were being treated as second-class citizens.
“People say that the Constitution was drafted in 1947. However, I believe that this Constitution is thousands of years old, and it includes thoughts of Ambedkar ji, Pule ji, Gandhi ji, Nehru ji, Guru Nanak ji and Kabir. The Constitution contains the thoughts of those whom India respects,” Rahul Gandhi said. (With inputs from ANI)
