The BJP has intensified its criticism against Rahul Gandhi, accusing the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha of committing 'treason' with his recent remarks in the US.
Addressing media queries at party headquarters, BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra stated, 'Rahul Gandhi has committed 'rashtradroh' (treason) in the US. The entire country is hurt by the kind of image of India he has projected.' Patra asserted that Gandhi's arrogance as the opposition leader is evident in Parliament, and his foolishness was displayed in the US.
Patra criticized Gandhi's divisive comments on caste and religion, particularly remarks about Sikhs, labeling them as treasonous when made on foreign soil. He further accused Gandhi of failing to represent India appropriately abroad and regularly undermining the nation.
'Everyone knows who is a 'panauti'? 'Pappu' and 'panauti' go together. Whatever Pappu has touched, it has suffered destruction... He is the biggest 'panauti' of the Congress,' Patra said, insinuating Gandhi's consistent failures. According to Patra, Congress has faced electoral defeats since Gandhi took charge, and he predicts the party's continued downfall.
