Rahul Gandhi’s hate for PM is now hate for India, Indians demand his apology for UK remarks

Union Minister Smriti Irani on Wednesday spoke on Rahul Gandhi’s remarks about the Indian democracy in the UK.

The second part of the Budget session of Parliament, which started on Monday, is seeing repeated disruption of proceedings over the remarks made by Gandhi during his recent visit to the UK.

“Under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, the lies that became the foundation of his (Rahul Gandhi’s) conversation in England, were many. He claimed that he did not have access to conversation and Indian universities. That, for him, was an indication of the death of democracy,” Irani said.

Questioning the Congress MP, Smriti Irani said, “In 2016, Rahul Gandhi went to an Indian university in the national capital and supported the slogan of ‘Bharat Tere Tukde Honge’. The same gentleman, in Jammu and Kashmir during the Bharat Jodo Yatra, said all is well in India. Which one was the lie?”

“Rahul Gandhi attacked the supremacy of institutions such as the Supreme Court of India, the Election Commission of India,” Smriti Irani said.

Further, the union minister said India demands an apology from Rahul Gandhi for what he said in the UK.

“Every Indian citizen demands an apology to the Indian Parliament. It is shameful that Rahul Gandhi, instead of coming to Parliament and apologising for his rant against India, is absent from the Parliament,” Smriti Irani said.

Speaking in the UK recently, Rahul Gandhi had alleged that the structures of Indian democracy are under “brutal attack” and BJP and RSS have captured almost all institutions. He has often accused the Sangh of fanning hate and creating divisions in society.
