Rahul Gandhi met US lawmakers, including anti-India critic Ilhan Omar, raising concerns about undisclosed discussions given Omar’s history of propagating anti-India narratives and ties with extremists.
Rahul Gandhi chose to exploit his media interaction in the US to score political brownies at home. He not only raked up domestic political affairs but also demonised the RSS.
Gurpatwant Singh Pannun claimed that the statement made by Gandhi is "firmly grounded in the factual history of what Sikhs have been facing under successive regimes in India since 1947 and also corroborates SFJ's stance on the justification for Punjab Independence Referendum to establish Sikh homeland Khalistan."
Rahul Gandhi co-opted Sikhs to further his propaganda against the Modi govt, not realising Sikhs faced their greatest threat ever under Congress govt after the assassination of Indira Gandhi.
Even though Rahul Gandhi makes lofty claims that Congress respects women, the party has often sacked women party workers who raised their voice against harassment by party colleagues.
"He (Rahul Gandhi) has a vision contrary to what BJP promotes by spending crores of rupees. I must tell you, he is no Pappu. He is highly educated, well-read, a strategist with deep thinking on any subject and sometimes it is not very easy to understand him," Pitroda said.
In an article, the Bangladeshi journalist stated that the Congress party deliberately never called Sonia Gandhi by her original name. He also called Sonia Gandhi a 'mafia queen' and a 'Pakistani ISI asset' who has been carrying out her 'activities' in India.
Smriti Irani criticised Rahul Gandhi’s earlier temple politics, suggesting his recent focus on caste issues is a tactical move to gain media coverage after his previous efforts failed.
