New Delhi [India], September 12 (ANI): BJP MP Sambit Patra on Thursday hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleging that the LoP in the Lok Sabha was trying to divide the country on caste and religion even on foreign soil.
“Rahul Gandhi’s arrogance of being the Leader of Opposition is not just visible in the Parliament, his stupidity was also seen in America… I am using this word because crores of Indians are hurt by the way he has portrayed India in the US… Rahul Gandhi has committed treason in the US… He tried to divide castes and religions on foreign soil… He made a harsh statement on Sikhs in a foreign country… This is treason and when there is treason, using a word like ‘stupidity’ is appropriate,” BJP MP Sambit Patra said.,
The BJP MP also took a dig at Rahul Gandhi’s brief pause when an audience at his function in the US asked what the ‘A’ stands for in the acronym of the opposition alliance ‘INDIA’. Patra said that the Congress leader took time because he was thinking about whether ‘A’ stands for appeasement, apraadh(crime) or arrogance.
“Someone asked him (Rahul Gandhi) if it is INDIA alliance, then what does the ‘A’ stand for? After thinking for some time, Rahul Gandhi remembered that it stands for ‘Alliance’. Rahul Gandhi thought for a while before answering because he was confused if the ‘A’ stands for appeasement, apraadh (crime), or arrogance,” Patra told reporters here.
“A for ‘Apraadh’, there is TMC’s apraadh (crime) in Bengal, ‘A’ for appeasement, Congress’ appeasement in Himachal Pradesh, and ‘A’ for arrogance of the Congress and its alliance parties who drag the institution of CJI in politics. They have the arrogance of dragging the Ganesh festival into politics,” he added.
Reacting to the protests over the alleged illegal construction of a mosque in Sanjauli, Himachal Pradesh, Patra accused the Congress of indulging in appeasement politics.
“Hindu outfits and common people of Shimla are on the streets and are raising their voice against an illegal mosque. It is very clear that the concerned mosque is illegal. Congress’ Rural Development Minister Anirudh Singh asked on the floor of the House where the people of the ‘Jamaat’ come from. He also spoke on ‘Love Jihad’… Congress opened a front against him,” Patra said.
“The Municipal Court has served a notice to the mosque 45 times to produce the papers of legality, but they have submitted no papers. Congress still has the attitude of appeasement. If Rahul Gandhi meets Ilhan Omar, then obviously he will have affection towards illegal mosques and there would be lathi-charge against Hindus. Ilhan Omar is not going to say that illegal mosques should be removed. The BJP is against the lathi-charge and the action taken against women too… ‘Hindu par lathi-charge aur avaidh masjid ka recharge, yeh nahi chalega’,” he added. (ANI)
