New Delhi [India], January 15 (ANI): Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Wednesday hit back at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his recent statement, suggesting that Gandhi should focus on his own mental well-being.
“Tell him to go get his mental stability checked,” Puri said tersely, without elaborating further on the context of Gandhi’s remarks.
The statement comes after, Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi’s remark, while inaugurating the party’s new headquarters ‘Indira Bhawan,’ hit out at the BJP and alleged that the Congress and other opposition parties were not just fighting the BJP but the Indian state itself.
“Our ideology like the RSS ideology is thousands of years old and it has been fighting the RSS ideology for thousands of years. Do not think that we are fighting a fair fight. There is no fairness in this. If you believe that we are fighting a political organisation called the BJP or RSS, you have not understood what is going on. The BJP and the RSS have captured every single institution of our country. We are now fighting the BJP, the RSS and the Indian State itself,” he said.
“We do not know whether our institutions are working or are non-functional. It is pretty clear what the media is up to. Even people know that media is no longer free and fair,” he added.
He further alleged that the BJP wanted to suppress the minorities, and backward caste voices.
“They want India to be run by one man and aim to crush the voices of Dalits, minorities, backward castes, and tribals. This is their agenda,” he remarked.
Congress MP also said “The people who are in power today do not salute the tricolour, do not believe in the national flag, and do not believe in the Constitution. They have a completely different vision of India than we do.” (ANI)
