BJP's Rajasthan Chief Madan Rathore condemned Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's remarks on RSS, describing them as lacking adequate information and therefore deserving censure. Rathore insisted that no political leader should speak without proper understanding, particularly when commenting on major Indian organizations.
Gandhi originally targeted RSS by aligning it with BJP's alleged cowardice, referencing Foreign Minister S Jaishankar's China comment. At a Colombian university event, Gandhi expanded on his stance with an anecdote from Vinayak Damodar Savarkar's writings, criticizing the BJP-RSS for allegedly targeting weaker groups.
The Congress leader further attacked the Narendra Modi administration, citing threats to Indian democracy and structural-flaw concerns. While optimistic about India's strengths in engineering and healthcare, Gandhi underscored the necessity of protecting diverse traditions and amending constitutional weaknesses.
