BJP chief J P Nadda accused Congress leaders of dividing society and prioritizing one family over the nation. Nadda praised Sardar Patel's contributions to India's unity, criticized Congress for neglecting other freedom fighters, and urged youth to pledge for a developed India by 2047 under PM Modi's leadership.

BJP chief and Union minister J P Nadda on Saturday criticized the Congress, describing its leaders as "fake patriots" and accusing them of dividing society and prioritizing only one family.

Speaking before launching the BJP's Tiranga Yatra in Rajkot, Gujarat, Nadda attacked Rahul Gandhi without naming him, arguing the Congress is narrow-minded and should remember Sardar Patel's role in uniting India.

Nadda also said Congress has ignored freedom fighters like Chandra Shekhar Azad and Bhagat Singh, urging the party to honor Sardar Patel's legacy. He called on youth to contribute to PM Modi's vision of a developed India by 2047.
