Rahul Gandhi Compares BJP To Mahatma Gandhi’s Assassin Nathuram Godse
Rahul Gandhi was speaking at a ‘Jan Aakrosh’ rally in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh’s Shajapur.
“This is a fight of ideologies. On one side, there is the Congress party and on the other side, the RSS and BJP. On one side, there is Mahatma Gandhi and on the other, there is Godse,” he said.
Gandhi added that the fight between the Congress and the BJP was “hatred versus love and brotherhood”. “Wherever they go they spread hatred. Now this has happened that Madhya Pradesh’s farmers and youth have started hating them. They are getting back what they did with people,” he said at the rally.
“We walked 370 kilometres in Madhya Pradesh and met farmers, women and young people of the state. They told me a few things. The amount of corruption done by the BJP in Madhya Pradesh has not been done anywhere in the country,” the Congress MP said at the rally.
