Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], July 20 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national spokesperson CR Kesavan on Sunday launched a sharp attack on Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of echoing a “pro-Pakistan narrative” after the Congress leader questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi over US President Donald Trump’s recent “five jets shot down” claim.
He further stated that the Congress leader spoke like the “Leader of Pakistan.”
“Rahul Gandhi is speaking like LoP. Not the Leader of Opposition but the Leader of Pakistan, peddling a very toxic pro-Pakistan narrative and tarnishing the image of India and our army,” Kesavan told ANI.
Labelling Rahul Gandhi’s social media post as “pernicious and toxic”, Kesavan said that the tweet demonstrated the Congress leader’s lack of trust in the Indian Armed Forces.
“Rahul Gandhi’s pernicious, toxic tweet clearly demonstrates that Rahul Gandhi has no trust in our Indian Armed Forces. The tweet clearly shows that Rahul Gandhi’s loyalty does not lie with India, and also Rahul Gandhi seems to be deriving a very sadistic pleasure in demeaning our brave defence personnel and defaming our nation… Rahul Gandhi currently got bail in a defamation case, allegedly for insulting the dignity of the Indian Army, and now he continues to ungratefully malign our armed forces…”
Kesavan further claimed that while Trump’s statement on jets nowhere mentioned India, Rahul Gandhi twisted and tried to humiliate the selfless valour of the Indian Army.
“The tweet made by US President Trump had nowhere mentioned India’s name. Rahul Gandhi has twisted and tried to humiliate the selfless valour of the Indian Army… he does not have belief in our own armed forces. His behaviour is condemnable. His dangerous anti-India campaign has caused outrage everywhere…” he added.
Kesavan said such “anti-India campaigns” by Rahul Gandhi had triggered widespread outrage and added, “People of India will teach Rahul Gandhi a lesson…”
The remarks came a day after Rahul Gandhi, in a post on X on July 19, questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding Trump’s claims of having defused an escalation between India and Pakistan, during which “five ships were shot down.”
The post read, “Modi ji, what is the truth about the 5 ships? The country has the right to know!”
This comes after Donald Trump once again claimed to have halted the escalation of the India-Pakistan conflict on Saturday. (ANI)
