Rahul attacks BJP’s divisive tactics
Sumedha Sharma & Ravinder Saini
Addressing rallies in Nuh and Mahendragarh, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi warned voters against being misled by Independents and regional parties, accusing them of being mere “B, C, D teams of the BJP.” He urged voters to resist these groups, claiming they would eventually align with the BJP after the elections.
“These Independents and regional parties are all B, C, D teams of BJP who are trying to fool voters. They speak against the BJP now but will join them tomorrow. Don’t be misled by them,” said Rahul Gandhi during a public gathering in Nuh. He went on to accuse the incumbent government of sowing communal hatred and undermining the Constitution, urging voters to support Congress’s message of love through their ‘Mohabbat ki Dukaan’ campaign.
“The Constitution empowers you, and that’s why they are undermining it. If the Constitution is lost, then you, the poor, will have nothing. Your land, money, and water will vanish into the hands of a select few. Hatred is their weapon, and love is our answer. Defeat their ulterior motives,” he added.
In Mahendragarh, Rahul focused on the neglect of farmers by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government, questioning why debt of millionaires can be waived while farmers continue to suffer. “If Rs 16 lakh crore in debts for millionaires can be waived, why not waive farmers’ loans? Farmers will get the MSP they deserve. The fight is for equality, but discrimination against farmers and the poor continues,” he said during a rally at Bawania village under the Mahendragarh constituency.
Significantly, Ashok Tanwar left the BJP and returned to the Congress after five years. He rejoined the party in the presence of Rahul Gandhi and former CM Bhupinder Hooda.
