New Delhi (TIP)- The BJP on Thursday, September 19, fielded its president JP Nadda to rebut a letter Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge wrote to the prime minister highlighting BJP leaders’ abuses directed at Rahul Gandhi.
In a strongly worded three-page rebuttal to Kharge, Nadda asked why the Congress chief never mentioned political morality and decorum when his colleagues hurled over “110 abuses at PM Modi”.
Nadda went on to list these abuses, including Rahul Gandhi’s “thieves” reference for “Modis (who are OBCs) and his mother Sonia Gandhi’s “maut ka saudahar” remarks meant for Modi and said, “The so-called products being sold in Rahul Gandhi-led Mohabbat ki Dukaan which solely aims to acquire power are the poison of casteism, seeds of animosity, spices of anti-nationalism, toxins of defamation of India and the sledgehammer of breaking up the nation,” Nadda wrote to Kharge, adding: “Hope my letter answers the questions raised by you and your party leader.”
In serial swipes at the Congress chief, Nadda described Rahul as a “failed product” asking Kharge “what his compulsion was in repeatedly relaunching a failed product”.
“What is your compulsion in defending a person whose history has been of abusing the entire OBC segment as thieves; using unsavoury references for the PM, including speaking of beating him up with sticks?” asked Nadda.
He said Rahul Gandhi’s mother Sonia Gandhi used “maut ka saudagar” remarks for the PM and the Congress continued to glorify these shameless remarks.
“Why did the Congress then forget political morality when Rahul Gandhi openly said, ‘We will soil Modi’s image.’ I understand it is your compulsion to keep relaunching a failed product but as party president you should introspect,” the BJP chief said, adding that India’s oldest political party under the pressure of the dynasty has been reduced to a “copy and paste party”.
“The Congress and company have hurled over 110 abuses at PM Modi. Top Congress leaders are involved in this. Why do words like political morality, dignity, discipline, courtesy vanish from your dictionary when the Congress abuses the PM?” Nadda asked, accusing Kharge of double standards.
Listing the slurs Congress leaders used for Modi, Nadda said no other political leader in India’s history has been insulted as much as PM Modi. “And the Congress has rewarded abusers of Modi with top posts. I would need to write a book to cover this topic,” said Nadda, asking if these abuses have not shamed India. Source: TNS
