“Mohan Bhagwat Will Also Be Called Terrorist If…”: Rahul Gandhi Slams Modi

“Whoever will try to stand against PM Modi will be called a terrorist – be it farmers, labourers and even Mohan Bhagwat,” the former Congress president said.

In a sharp attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the government over the farmer protests, Rahul Gandhi said today there was “no democracy” in India and those who stood up against the PM were labelled terrorists, “even if it was (RSS chief) Mohan Bhagwat”.

“PM Modi is making money for the crony capitalists. Whoever will try to stand against him will be called a terrorist – be it farmers, labourers and even Mohan Bhagwat,” the former Congress president said, referring to the chief of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the BJP’s parent organisation.

“There is no democracy in India. If some of you think there is, then it’s in your imagination,” Mr Gandhi said.

After leading a delegation of Congress workers to President Ram Nath Kovind to seek his intervention in ending the massive protests near Delhi over farm laws, Rahul Gandhi was speaking to reporters where he also demanded a joint session of parliament to discuss the laws.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and several other party leaders were taken into custody during the Congress march led by Rahul Gandhi to the presidential palace Rashtrapati Bhawan.

The laws would take away the livelihoods of millions of farmers and they were designed to favour “four or five businessmen” who were crony capitalists, Mr Gandhi told reporters after meeting President Ramnath Kovind.

“What the youth and all the people of this country should know is that the PM is an incompetent man, who knows nothing. He is an incompetent man who only listens to the crony capitalists. He does whatever they tell him,” Mr Gandhi added.

“The farmers and labourers are uniting now. But like always, the moment someone speaks against the government of the day, they are labelled anti-nationals and terrorists. This is unfortunate, but that is what is happening today. People’s voices are being stifled,” the Congress leader said.
