Nuh : At a rally in Nuh, Haryana, Congress leader and Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi launched a fierce critique against the BJP and its ideological ally, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), accusing them of destroying India’s Constitution. Speaking on Thursday, Gandhi alleged that the BJP is fostering division and hate across the country, while the Congress is working to unite the nation through love and inclusivity.
Highlighting the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Gandhi stated, “From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, wherever the BJP opened a ‘market of hate’, we opened a ‘shop of love’. The fight is between two ideologies—one that seeks to tear the Constitution apart and another that stands for protecting it.” He reiterated that the Congress party’s mission is to spread harmony, countering what he claims is the BJP’s strategy of promoting hatred and disunity.
Gandhi also addressed the economic concerns plaguing the state of Haryana. He accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government of prioritizing the interests of billionaires over the common people. According to Gandhi, while loans for the wealthy are being waived off, struggling farmers and ordinary citizens are left in the lurch. “Young people from Haryana I met in the U.S. told me they left the country because of unemployment. They were forced to take loans to pursue opportunities abroad, as they couldn’t find jobs here,” he said, blaming the BJP-led government for Haryana’s high unemployment rate.
In a pointed attack on smaller political parties contesting in the upcoming Haryana elections, Gandhi claimed these parties were merely extensions of the BJP, referring to them as the “A, B, C, and D teams” of the ruling party. Urging voters to rally behind the Congress, he warned them not to be misled by parties pretending to be independent but actually serving the BJP’s agenda.
Haryana will go to the polls on October 5, and the results will be announced on October 8. Gandhi’s fiery rhetoric at the Nuh rally has set the tone for a high-stakes battle as the Congress seeks to unseat the BJP in the state.
