Hitting back at the former Congress president, Anurag Thakur said that Rahul couldn’t digest the fact that Australian PM Anthony Albanese called PM Modi ‘Boss’ during his recent foreign visits. 

“During his foreign visits, Rahul Gandhi insults India. PM Modi met almost 24 PMs and Presidents of the world & held over 50 meetings during his foreign visit recently and when the Australian PM said that ‘PM Modi is the Boss’, Rahul Gandhi could not digest this,” the news agency ANI quoted Thakur as saying.

While addressing the Indian dispora in an event in San Francisco, California, the former Congress MP said, “In India, we grew up with people of different languages, different religions. And that is what is being attacked. The tradition in India, of people like Gandhi Ji and Guru Nanak Ji, has been that you should not be under the impression of knowing everything. It is a ‘disease’ that some groups of India think that they know everything. Even if they have a conversation with God, they might explain to him.”

‘Minorities Feeling Attacked Under BJP Govt’: Rahul

Gandhi was answering a question from the ‘Bay Area Muslim community’ while peaking at an event in Santa Clara, California. The Congress leader said, ” The way Muslims are feeling attacked, I can guarantee Sikhs, Christians, Dalits and Tribals are feeling the same. What is happening to Muslims in India today happened to Dalits in the 1980s”. Taking a swipe at the ruling Bharatiya Janta Party government, Rahul said it is ‘threatening’ the people and ‘misusing’ the country’s agencies.

Gandhi accused the BJP and the RSS of dominating all the political instruments in India. He said he understood that the usual methods that were used in politics in the past were no longer effective before he began his ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’.

Asked about his decision to skip the Niti Aayog meeting in Delhi on Saturday, Kumar said, ?It was in the morning and I had other engagements in Patna during the day… Therefore I could not go to Delhi. Had the meeting been held in the afternoon, I would have attended it. I sent a list of ministers and officials who could attend the meeting, but there was no response from the Centre. So no representative from Bihar is attending today’s meeting”.

On the Reserve Bank of India’s decision to withdraw Rs 2000 denomination banknotes from circulation after September 30, 2023, Kumar said, “First one thousand currency notes were withdrawn and now Rs 2000… I fail to understand their intentions”.
