At the completion of the 19th day of the Bharat Jodo Yatra, the grand old party’s effort to connect with the people of the nation, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi yet again slammed the Modi government on Monday. His new comments, which were directed at the BJP, came even as his party was dealing with tensions in Rajasthan politics.
In a tweet, the 52-year-old Congress MP wrote in Hindi what he has often said before: “Today, loans worth billions of rupees are being waived off for big industrialists. But if a small trader or a farmer cannot repay even a small loan, he is declared a defaulter, and put in jail.”
Bharat Jodo Yatra is against every injustice. Raja ke yeh do Hindustan, Bharat sweekar nahi karega (These two versions of the country, India won’t accept),” he further added.
At a speech following the end of the 19th day of the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, Gandhi said, “The BJP-RSS wants this river (people at this rally) to get divided, wants residents to fight with each other. They want a river where if somebody falls, nobody picks him up and where everybody is alone. They run the country by dividing it and spreading hatred”.
