New Delhi [India], June 4 (ANI): Congress MP Pramod Tiwari said Rahul Gandhi’s arrow directly hit the target. Supporting Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi’s statement questioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi over Operation Sindoor, Tiwari said that the BJP is discouraged and mentally distressed.
Speaking to ANI, MP Pramod Tiwari said, “Rahul Gandhi’s arrow directly hit the target. He (Rahul Gandhi) did what was his responsibility towards the country, as a leader of the opposition party. The whole world knows that Donald Trump has said 12 times that he has brokered a ceasefire, by luring both sides in the name of trade. So, Rahul Gandhi fulfilled his duty, and the BJP has become discouraged and mentally distressed. That’s why they are attacking in non-parliamentary language.”
He demanded that the BJP leaders ask Prime Minister Narendra Modi to say that US President Donald Trump is lying.
“I ask that if there is courage in the BJP, then ask its leader, Narendra Modi, to say that Trump is lying…” he said.
The row began when, addressing a convention of Congress workers in Bhopal, LoP Rahul Gandhi said, “Now, I understand RSS-BJP well. They run away out of fear if slight pressure is put on them. When Trump called Modiji- Modiji kya kar rahe ho, Narender-Surrender and with ‘ji hazooor’, Narenderji followed Trump. In the 1971 war, the Seventh Fleet (which came from the US), India Gandhi said I will do whatever I have to do. This is the difference. This is their character; all of them are like this. Since the Independence movement, they have had the habit of writing letters of surrender.”
He also reiterated his attack on social media, X, stating, “Trump’s phone came, and PM Narendra Modi ji immediately surrendered. History is witness. This is the character of the BJP-RSS; they always budge. India had bifurcated Pakistan in 1971 despite the threat by the United States.”
“The ‘babbar sher’ and ‘shernis’ of Congress fight the Superpowers, they do not bow,” his post read.
This was followed by attacks from BJP leaders. Senior BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said, “Rahul Gandhi has proved again that he does not have the ability and maturity to handle a post like the Leader of the Opposition and has shown his lack of wisdom and low standards,” said Trivedi.
Reacting to Rahul Gandhi’s remark on the BJP-RSS, Trivedi said, “This is the same BJP and the same organisation that has reduced the once-invincible Congress to irrelevance in many states.”
The BJP MP went on to list what he termed a series of “surrenders” by Congress governments over the years.
“You said on 15 July 2011 that terrorism cannot be controlled — that was a surrender to terrorism. After the 26/11 attacks, your government did not permit military retaliation. That, too, was a surrender. In 1971, despite having 93,000 Pakistani soldiers in custody, Indira Gandhi’s government failed to reclaim PoK. In 1948, Nehru took the Kashmir issue to the UN and surrendered half of it. At Independence, one-third of the country was surrendered to Jinnah and the Muslim League,” Trivedi stated.
BJP MP Sambit Patra said that Rahul Gandhi’s speech in Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday does not befit any “civilised politician or any leader of the opposition.” (ANI)
