MANDYA (Karnataka), April 17, 2024 (TBINN)
Congress’ leader Rahul Gandhi today termed the upcoming Lok Sabha elections as a battle between two ideologies — I.N.D.I.A. Bloc “fighting for Constitution” on the one hand and Bhartiya Janta Party, which wants to “abolish Constitution and democracy,” on the other.
Rahul Gandhi said if I.N.D.I.A. Bloc is voted to power, it will be “a government of ordinary citizens, farmers, labourers and traders”, while highlighting his party’s manifesto for the polls.
“This is a fight between two ideologies. There is Congress and I.N.D.I.A. Bloc on one hand, which fought for the Constitution, gave Constitution and democracy to the country. On the other hand there is B.J.P., which wants to abolish the Constitution and democracy and is placing their people in all the institutions,” Rahul Gandhi said, addressing an election rally here.
While the B.J.P.-Government “belonged to 22 to 25 rich people”, Congress will give a government which will work for the ordinary citizens, farmers, labourers and traders, Rahul Gandhi underlined.
Rahul Gandhi alleged that the B.J.P.-led Government at the Centre ran “Hafta Bazi” (extortion scheme) as he called the now-scrapped Electoral Bonds Scheme as the biggest ever extortion scam in the world.
Rahul Gandhi asked people to Google and watch Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s interview on electoral bonds to see how his hands were shaking. You must have seen Narendra Modi’s interview. In that interview he spoke about electoral bonds. It was an hour-long interview where he tried to clarify on electoral bonds.
“Just do one thing. Go to Google and see the interview, you will notice that his hands are trembling because the electoral bond is the biggest ever corruption in India,” Rahul said.
“On the street it is known as extortion and ‘Hafta Bazi’. Usually these works are done by petty goons. They bully and extort money. Electoral bonds are the biggest ever extortion scam of the world. That was the reason that the Prime Minister’s hands were shaking while explaining it,” Rahul Gandhi alleged.
